This player is a fit for a 3-4 two-gap scheme, prioritizing strong run defense and controlled pass rush from the defensive line.
Year 1 as a rotational 3-4 DE, with the ceiling to develop into a starting two-gap run defender.
Wide-9 attacking front where he'd be asked to consistently penetrate upfield as a pass rusher.
A strong, stout player best suited for a system that values holding the line of scrimmage and controlling gaps. Ed Stinson at 287 lbs has the strength to play the 5-Tech in a 3-4 front or a 2-gap DE in a 4-3, but lacks the speed and bend to be an every-down pass rusher in a scheme that values those traits above all else. His 4.98 forty is good for a player of his size. But he's not an edge rusher who will beat linemen around the corner. Instead, he wins with power and technique, splitting double teams and pushing the pocket.
