02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Cover-3 match with a strong emphasis on disciplined zone coverage principles and versatility in defensive backfield alignments.
Boundary CBOutside CBNickel CBDime package
Best role
Initially rotational outside corner with eventual starting potential due to size and press ability.
Wrong fit
Man-heavy schemes that frequently ask corners to shadow elite route runners without safety help.
Ivey's size and press capability make him a good fit for zone-heavy schemes where he can funnel receivers and contribute in run support.
