Chris Slayton is a good scheme fit for a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front where his quickness and burst can be utilized to disrupt in the backfield.
Initially, a rotational interior lineman who can develop into a starting 3-technique with his explosive first step and ability to displace blockers.
A true two-gap 3-4 defense would minimize his value, as he lacks the bulk and two-gap technique to consistently hold the line against double teams.
Slayton's burst and active playing style make him a natural fit for defenses that prioritize upfield disruption from their interior linemen.
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.
