02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Sturdivant is a fit for a blitz-heavy two-gap 3-4 defense or a traditional 4-3 where his ability to shed blocks and pressure the passer can be maximized.

3-4 ILB4-3 MIKE
Best role

He projects as a Year 1 rotational inside linebacker with potential to develop into a starting two-down run-stopper and effective blitzer.

Wrong fit

A passive nickel defense where he is consistently asked to cover slot receivers or tight ends in man coverage would significantly diminish his value.

Sturdivant's strengths are best utilized in schemes that allow him to play downhill, engage blockers, and attack the backfield rather than dropping into extensive pass coverage.
