The right team fit is crucial when talking about NFL rookies and how they project at the next level. We saw numerous talented prospects selected over seven rounds during the 2022 NFL draft, but which ones landed in the perfect scheme for their skill sets? Who was put in the best possible position to succeed? Who will get the right coaching and pro system to maximize their talents?
I picked out my 10 favorite fits -- the prospects who landed on teams that fit them perfectly, factoring in scheme, tendencies and coaching. These players could thrive right out of the gates in their NFL careers if they are set up and developed in the right way. And I believe they are in the ideal spots to do just that.
I also chose five of my favorite value picks of the middle rounds. These are guys who weren't top-70 picks but could play early and often because of their high-end physical traits and the situations on the teams that picked them. Keep an eye on them during the 2022 season and beyond.
Let's dive in, starting with a defensive back who has a superb new NFL home.
