02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Cover-3, Cover-4, and man-match systems that demand versatile, rangy safeties with strong tackling abilities as well as high football IQ.
Field SafetyMoneybackerStrong SafetyDimebacker
Best role
Year 1 special teams ace and sub-package safety, with the ceiling to develop into a starting strong safety capable of playing in the box or as a deep half defender.
Wrong fit
Pure single-high safety systems that regularly ask him to cover the entire deep third without much box responsibility.
Skinner's size and tackling prowess make him a natural fit for schemes that value a physical presence in the secondary and can leverage his versatility in multiple coverage looks.
