Goode is best suited for an attacking 4-3 defense that prioritizes speed and agility at the linebacker position to cover ground and make plays sideline-to-sideline.
Year 1 impact player on special teams with significant snaps in sub-packages, and a ceiling as a reliable starting Will linebacker.
Two-gap 3-4 schemes that require larger, more physical linebackers to stack and shed.
Goode's athleticism and playmaking ability are best utilized in a scheme that allows him to flow to the ball and make plays in space rather than being asked to consistently win against offensive linemen head-on.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
