Schobert's best fit is in a 4-3 defense that prioritizes athletic, versatile linebackers capable of covering ground and making plays sideline to sideline.
Schobert projects as an immediate special teams contributor with the potential to develop into a starting weakside linebacker by his second season.
A traditional 3-4 two-gap scheme would diminish Schobert's ability to flow freely and attack, as his frame is not ideally suited for consistently taking on larger blockers at the point of attack.
His athleticism and instincts are best utilized when he can read and react, rather than being asked to consistently shed blocks in tight spaces.
Selected #99 overall in Round 4 of the 2016 NFL Draft by Cleveland Browns out of Wisconsin.
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.
