02Scheme fit
Ideal system
Fangio two-high based 4-3 defense utilizing reduced fronts and zone principles for pass coverage.
Boundary OLBRush DESpecial Teams ace
Best role
Year 1 rotational pass rusher and special teams contributor, with the ceiling to develop into a starting 3-4 OLB or stand-up 4-3 EDGE rusher.
Wrong fit
A traditional 3-4 two-gap scheme where he'd be asked to consistently hold the point of attack against double teams.
Beal’s explosive speed and burst make him an ideal fit for an attacking front where he can focus on pressuring the passer and setting the edge.
