Rolle's explosive playmaking ability and speed are best utilized in a modern gap-run read and react scheme with heavy blitz packages, where his pursuit downhill can be maximized.
Excellent special teams player and rotational sub-package LB in year one, with the potential to develop into a starting Will LB due to his blitzing prowess.
A two-gap 3-4 defense, which would ask him to take on and shed blocks, nullifying his speed and quickness.
Rolle's stature and skill set make him an ideal fit for a weakside linebacker role that prioritizes speed and disruption over raw strength.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
