Elandon Roberts fits best in a Cover-3 match scheme, leveraging his downhill tackling ability and comfort in a stack linebacker role to defend tight ends and zone runs.
As a rookie, Roberts projects as a core special teamer and sub-package run defender, with the potential to develop into a two-down starting inside linebacker in a run-heavy scheme.
A weak-side linebacker role in a primarily man coverage scheme would expose his limited sideline-to-sideline range and inconsistent coverage technique.
Roberts' physical, aggressive play style makes him a valuable asset against the run and on special teams, but his coverage deficiencies limit his three-down potential in modern passing offenses.
