02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Cover-3 match defense that values versatile safeties capable of playing multiple roles in the secondary, particularly near the line of scrimmage.

Best role

Dixon projects as an immediate special teams contributor with a ceiling as a starting strong safety capable of run support and covering tight ends underneath.

Wrong fit

A deep single-high safety scheme would diminish his value due to his average deep speed and preference for downhill play.

His physical play style and ability to contribute against the run make him a good fit for defenses employing a strong safety in the box.
