02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Richard Gordon fits best in a run-heavy, two-TE offense that utilizes a power run scheme and values blocking at the tight end position.

Best role

Year one, Gordon projects as a blocking specialist and core special teams contributor, with a long-term ceiling as a starting Y-tight end in a run-first scheme.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit for a pass-heavy spread offense that prioritizes receiving production from the tight end position.

Gordon's primary value comes from his blocking prowess, making him an asset in alignments that require a strong, physical presence at the line of scrimmage.
