02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Frank Alexander is a prototypical 4-3 defensive end, best suited for aggressive fronts that prioritize quarterback pressure and disruption in the backfield.

Wide-9 DE5-technique DERush specialist
Best role

Year 1: Rotational pass rusher, working into a starting role by Year 2-3. Ceiling: Impact starter with double-digit sack potential.

Wrong fit

Two-gap 3-4 defense, where his size and hand usage would be misutilized, hindering his natural pass-rushing ability.

A solid fit for teams seeking an athletic edge who can contribute immediately in a 4-3 pass-rushing scheme.
