02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Gotsis is a good scheme fit for a one-gap 3-4 penetrating front as a defensive tackle.

3-4 DT3-4 DE5TReduced-front DE
Best role

Year 1: Rotational interior defensive lineman with pass rushing upside. Ceiling: 3-4 starting defensive tackle capable of disrupting both run and pass.

Wrong fit

Two-gapping 3-4 nose tackle.

Gotsis offers versatility to play multiple spots along the defensive line, but needs to develop more technique to reach his full potential.

04The evaluation

Selected #63 overall in Round 2 of the 2016 NFL Draft by Denver Broncos out of Georgia Tech.
