02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The ideal system for Potter would be a zone-heavy run scheme that prioritizes athletic offensive linemen capable of reaching and cutting off defenders.

Left TackleZone scheme LTOutside Zone LT
Best role

Potter could project as a swing tackle early in his career, with the potential to develop into a starting left tackle in a zone-based system.

Wrong fit

He would struggle in a power/gap scheme that requires him to consistently generate push at the point of attack in a phone booth.

His athleticism and movement skills are his greatest assets, making him a good fit for systems that leverage these traits.
