02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The ideal defensive system for Matthew is a Cover-3 match scheme, leveraging his size and athleticism in zone coverage to disrupt passing lanes and support the run.

Best role

Matthew's ideal role year one is as a rotational safety and core special teams contributor, with a ceiling to develop into a starting strong safety capable of playing in the box or as a deep half player.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit in a two-high quarters scheme that demands excellent instincts and quick transitions against complex passing concepts from deep safety alignments.

Matthew's physical tools and run support acumen make him a good fit for schemes that value strong, athletic safeties who can contribute both against the run and in zone coverage, with room for growth in his pass coverage responsibilities.
