02Scheme fit
Ideal system
West Coast timing system that values tight ends as integral components of the pass game to complement a strong rushing attack.
Y-Tight EndH-back/Slot TEWing TE
Best role
Immediate contributor as a reliable, sure-handed target in the short-to-intermediate game and a solid run blocker, developing into a versatile starting Y-tight end with red-zone threat potential.
Wrong fit
Run-and-shoot offense with minimal tight end usage.
Ruckert's well-rounded skill set as both a receiver and blocker makes him adaptable to schemes that prioritize a versatile tight end.
