02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Cover-3 match and other zone-heavy defenses that utilize press and off-man coverage from larger cornerbacks.

Boundary CBPress-man CBOutside zone CB
Best role

Dantzler projects as an immediate starter on the boundary in a zone-heavy scheme, with the ceiling to develop into a high-level perimeter shutdown corner capable of disrupting passing lanes.

Wrong fit

Man-heavy schemes that require frequent mirroring of shifty, smaller receivers and do not feature strong safety over-the-top support.

His length, instincts, and physicality are well-suited for zone and press assignments in defenses that prioritize run support and contain.

04The evaluation

Selected #89 overall in Round 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft by Minnesota Vikings out of Mississippi State.
