Dallas primarily runs a 4-3 one-gap penetrating front defense emphasizing disruption and quick pressures.
Year 1 rotational pass rusher; ceiling of a starting 4-3 DE with elite sideline-to-sideline range.
Two-gapping 3-4 defense where his explosiveness would be negated by holding the point of attack.
Tapper's rare speed-to-power and length make him a scheme-versatile defensive end, though he excels in systems prioritizing upfield penetration.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
