02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Josh Harvey-Clemons best projects to a Fangio-style two-high safety system that leverages versatility and disguises coverage.

Box safetyDimebackerSlot defender
Best role

As a rookie, Harvey-Clemons could contribute immediately as a situational box safety or dimebacker, eventually developing into a starting strong safety with a high coverage ceiling.

Wrong fit

His value diminishes significantly in a scheme prioritizing single-high coverage responsibilities due to his limited top-end speed.

Harvey-Clemons’s size and coverage ability allow him to fill multiple roles within a complex two-high defensive scheme.
