02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Chimdi Chekwa's ideal system revolves around a quarters or Cover-3 defense that values speed and man-to-man coverage skills from its defensive backs.

Boundary CBCover-3 CBNickel CBGunner
Best role

Chekwa projects as a Year 1 special teams ace and potential rotational boundary cornerback, with the ceiling to develop into a starting outside corner in a scheme that values his athleticism.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit in a complex Cover-2 zone heavy scheme that requires extensive read-and-react processing from its cornerbacks.

A scheme that can utilize his blistering speed and coverage ability in a press or off-man capacity will maximize his NFL potential while minimizing his processing deficiencies.
