02Scheme fit
Ideal system
The New York Jets' defensive scheme frequently employs a wide-9 attacking front with dynamic edge rushers and penetrating interior linemen.
4-3 DEWide-9 DE3-4 OLB5-technique
Best role
He projects as a rotational defensive end in Year 1, with the ceiling to develop into a starting 4-3 DE or 3-4 OLB who can set the edge and generate interior pressure.
Wrong fit
A two-gap 3-4 scheme that requires him to consistently hold his ground and occupy blocks rather than penetrate.
Clemons' length and power are well-suited to a high-motor attacking front that prioritizes disruption and TFLs.
