02Scheme fit
Ideal system
The Falcons traditionally employ a multiple-pro style offense, emphasizing a strong running game with outside zone and play-action concepts.
Y-tight endIn-line blockerH-back/fullback
Best role
FitzPatrick can immediately contribute as a dependable in-line blocking tight end in 12 and 22 personnel packages, with the ceiling to develop into a full-time Y-tight end.
Wrong fit
An Air-Raid or pass-heavy spread offense where his blocking prowess is underutilized and his receiving limitations are exposed.
A scheme prioritizing run-blocking and multiple tight end sets will maximize FitzPatrick's impact and allow for gradual development as a receiver.
