James Lynch projects best in a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front, where he can use his burst and power to disrupt the offensive line.
He can be an immediate rotational interior pass rusher in a 4-3 defense, with the ceiling to develop into a reliable starting 3-technique.
He would be a poor fit in a two-gap 3-4 scheme, where his lack of raw size and anchor strength would be exposed regularly.
Lynch's high motor and ability to play multiple techniques make him a versatile interior defensive lineman for a penetration-based system.
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.
