The Patriots primarily employ a hybrid front, mixing 4-3 and 3-4 principles with a focus on versatile defensive linemen and situational pass rushers.
Initially a rotational strongside defensive end capable of setting the edge against the run, with a ceiling as a solid every-down starter in a base 4-3 alignment.
A system that demands a twitchy, undersized edge rusher who relies primarily on speed and bend to impact the passer.
Bequette's size and run-stopping ability make him a good fit for a traditional 4-3 or hybrid defensive front seeking stout edge defenders.
Selected #90 overall in Round 3 of the 2012 NFL Draft by New England Patriots out of Arkansas.
