The Bengals run a base 4-3 defense with Cover 3 and Cover 4 looks, asking their safeties to be versatile in run support and pass coverage.
Fejedelem's path to playing time is likely as a core special teams contributor in Year 1, with the potential to develop into a rotational box safety. He could become a starter on a team that values his tackling prowess and dependability over exceptional coverage skills.
A system that predominantly isolates safeties in deep-half coverage without significant run support duties, as his straight-line speed is a limiting factor in those scenarios.
Fejedelem projects as a solid, dependable strong safety with high football IQ and special teams impact, best utilized closer to the line of scrimmage.
