02Scheme fit
Ideal system
3-4 attacking front with multiple fronts utilizing varying blitz packages and zone coverage principles (Cover 3, Cover 4).
WILLNickel LBDime LBSpecial Teams
Best role
Initially a core special teamer, Dye projects as a Year 1 depth linebacker with eventual two-down nickel/dime subpackage starter upside due to his coverage ability.
Wrong fit
He would be a poor fit in a traditional 4-3 two-gap system where he is asked to consistently take on and shed offensive linemen at the point of attack.
Dye's athletic traits and coverage skills make him a valuable asset in modern pass-heavy schemes, particularly where he can avoid constant stack-and-shed responsibilities.
