02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Kalia Davis best fits a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front, relying on his quickness and burst to disrupt offensive backfields.
3-tech DT1-tech DTRotational interior pass r
Best role
As a Year 1 player, Davis projects as a rotational interior pass rusher, eventually developing into a starting 3-technique tackle with further strength development.
Wrong fit
A two-gap 3-4 defense where his primary responsibility would be holding the point of attack against double teams, exposing his lack of raw play strength.
Explosive initial burst allows him to create immediate penetration, but he needs to improve his anchor against power run schemes.
