Quentin Poling's strengths align with a 4-3 Cover-2 scheme that values sideline-to-sideline speed and aggressive downhill play from its linebackers.
Poling could immediately contribute as a core special teams player, with the ceiling to develop into a starting weakside linebacker who excels in pursuit and coverage.
A 3-4 two-gap system where he'd be asked to consistently take on and shed larger offensive linemen is a poor fit for his athletic frame.
His athleticism and competitive motor make him an intriguing prospect for teams running a scheme that allows him to play fast and free.
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.
