02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Detroit Lions' Cover 3-based defense, blending zone and man coverage principles, emphasizes strong safety play, disciplined cornerbacks who can tackle, and a pass rush that can generate pressure without constant blitzing.

Best role

As a rookie, Agnew could serve as a valuable special teams contributor and develop as a nickel or boundary corner, with the ceiling to become a reliable starter in coverage.

Wrong fit

Man-heavy schemes with high demands on press-man coverage outside, as his lean frame and limited play strength could be exploited.

Agnew's athleticism and cover skills are appealing for a zone-heavy system, but his thin build suggests a need for an isolated role early in his career.
