Any guarantee that Callahan and his ZBS will be around next year?
I think there may be a good chance both Garrett and Callahan are gone next year.
Last year, the Cowboys were strictly looking for 3-4 defenders at DL and LB. Ryan and the 3-4 are both gone in the blink of an eye.
I say forget scheme. Just draft the best player available regardless of scheme or position.
Well you could go that route and have a player that just does not fit what you are trying to do. You could have the best zone CB available and draft him and realize he just does not fit the man coverage your team plays.
You could draft the best OLB in the college ranks but does he fit the same way if he is going to play in a 3-4 as your main pass rusher or a 4-3.
There are things to consider and teams do consider these things.
However I will say this. With Frederick you might get a player who is more flexible because some think he could play OG in the pros and might be even better suited for that...so you get some flexibility like you would with Cooper over Warmack.
