It's hard to find highlights of this guy. If we want to find an answer at DE in the draft, I would do it in the first round. There will be some talented guys there.
If we want a pure pass-rushing DE then I say we go after Everette Brown: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXJJ14HL5EE"]YouTube - FSU DE Everette Brown Highlights[/ame] one of the fastest and most explosive ends out there and he has great technique. He's a little small though and could have trouble with more athletic tackles.
If we want a bigger, more complete end then we take Tyson Jackson: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YssdMgoWYE&feature=PlayList&p=7B99EE0B69A E8642&playnext=1&index=10"]YouTube - DE Tyson Jackson Highlights LSU vs UF/SC 2008[/ame]
He's not quite as quick and agile once he gets in the backfield as Everette but he's a brick, doesn't get pushed around and shreds through double teams like they are nothing. I remember this guy taking a lot of attention away from Dorsey toward the end of last season.
I would also throw Brian Orakpo into the conversation but I haven't seen enough of him yet. His highlights look pretty impressive but he's from Texas and he's injury prone which means he could be a huge flop in the NFL.
