The ideal system for Dean Lowry is a 3-4 two-gap defense, leveraging his size and strength to control the line of scrimmage and occupy blockers.
Lowry projects as a Year 1 rotational 5-technique, with the ceiling to develop into a consistent starter setting the edge against the run.
He would struggle significantly in a wide-9 attacking front that prioritizes pure pass-rushing athleticism over power and run defense.
Lowry's combination of size, strength, and solid forty-yard dash time makes him a good fit for schemes that value stout run defenders on the defensive line.
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.

A dash means the figure is not published by a source we trust — never a zero we invented.
