02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Bromley's stout build and quickness off the snap make him an ideal fit for a one-gap 4-3 penetrating defensive front that prioritizes disruption in the backfield.

1-tech (nose)3-tech (under tackle)5-tech (strongside end)
Best role

Year 1 rotational interior pass rusher, with the ceiling to become a starting 1-tech tackle capable of consistent pressure.

Wrong fit

Two-gap 3-4 defense that asks him to read and react, as his primary strength is getting upfield.

His proportional quickness for his size allows him to shoot gaps and be disruptive, but he lacks the size and length to consistently anchor against double teams in a read-and-react system.

04The evaluation

Selected #74 overall in Round 3 of the 2014 NFL Draft by New York Giants out of Syracuse.
