02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Anthony Johnson's downhill trigger and zone instincts are best utilized in a Cover-3 match or Quarters system that allows him to play aggressive from depth.

Boundary safetySlot nickelDimebacker
Best role

Year 1 rotational safety and special teams ace with the upside to develop into a reliable starting box safety.

Wrong fit

He would be significantly devalued in a pure man-to-man scheme due to his average change-of-direction quickness.

A versatile defender whose best fit is a complex zone scheme that can maximize his football IQ and physicality nearer the line of scrimmage.
