02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Baltimore Ravens employ a run-heavy, physical offensive scheme that utilizes zone blocking principles, occasionally incorporating gap schemes.

CenterZone Blocking CGap Scheme C
Best role

Linderbaum can immediately start at center, excelling as a run blocker in both zone and gap schemes, with a ceiling to be a multi-Pro Bowl anchor.

Wrong fit

A pass-heavy, spread-out offense that frequently asks the center to operate in isolated 1-on-1 pass protection without run-game relief.

His blend of athleticism, power, and high football IQ makes him an ideal fit for the Ravens' demanding run-first scheme.

04The evaluation

Selected #25 overall in Round 1 of the 2022 NFL Draft by Baltimore Ravens out of Iowa.
