02Scheme fit
Ideal system

3-4 two-gap fronts that rely on powerful edge play and strong interior linebackers to funnel play inside.

3-4 OLBRush 'backerHybrid DE
Best role

Rotational pass rusher Year 1, with a ceiling to develop into a starting 3-4 OLB who can set the edge and rush the passer.

Wrong fit

A man-heavy scheme that asks him to drop into coverage frequently and read route concepts.

Attaochu projects as a designated pass rusher and strong-side run defender in a 3-4 system, leveraging his size and power.

04The evaluation

Selected #50 overall in Round 2 of the 2014 NFL Draft by San Diego Chargers out of Georgia Tech.
