02Scheme fit
Ideal system
The Minnesota Vikings operate under a predominantly Cover-2/Cover-3 zone scheme, emphasizing versatility and strong run support from their safeties.
Strong SafetyBox SafetyNickelbackerDime defender
Best role
Initially rotational depth and special teams ace, can develop into a starting strong safety with a nose for run support and intermediate zone coverage.
Wrong fit
A Cover-6 heavy scheme that demands elite deep zone range and man coverage ability from both safeties would significantly limit his effectiveness.
Cole's physical play and run-stopping ability make him a good fit for a team needing an enforcer close to the line of scrimmage.
