Da'Quan Bowers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 51st Pick, 2nd Round, 2011 NFL Draft


Bowers, Da’Quan Clemson 6033 280 4.75
Junior entry. Three-year starter with long arms and big hands.
The loss of 15 pounds helped Bowers become more explosive
off the edge. Light on his feet. Demonstrates a burst to the ball
carrier after he sheds the block. Makes the quarterback throw
out of the well on the pass rush by getting his hands up. Athletic
enough to drop into coverage. Can run the hoop around the
edge and run a play down from behind the line of scrimmage.
Plays on his feet. Good lateral quickness. He has the ability to
pressure and flush the quarterback out of the pocket. A disruptive
athlete who can accelerate off a block. Good agility and body
control. Keeps his balance. Quick feet and reactions. Reads play
quickly. If he doesn’t make the play, he forces a hurry. Tackling
numbers improved every year. Can set the edge with leverage
and strength at the point. Gives a good effort. Needs to diversify
his bag of tricks rushing the passer. Gets pushed by the quarterback
and up the field at times.

Da'Quan Bowers and Other Defensive End Notes 2011 Draft

Da'Quan Bowers,Adrian Clayborn,J.J. Watt,Marcell Dareus and others...

Junior Da’Quan Bowers is a big active athlete who plays fast. Light on his
feet after losing 15 pounds. He is disruptive, productive, and sudden in his
play. Adrian Clayborn has explosive lower body strength and good football
awareness. Sudden to spin out of down blocks. JJ Watt plays hard and with
passion. Versatile to match up anywhere along the offensive line. Ryan
Kerrigan is ultra productive with 26 tackles for loss, 14 forced fumbles over
his career, and 12 ½ sacks in 2010. Marcell Dareus is built for power. Good
lower body strength. Can be a 4-3 tackle or a 3-4 end. Locks out and controls
blocker. Cameron Jordan plays in a 3-4 scheme that will serve him well on
the next level. Plays with leverage and good change of direction. Robert
Quinn’s game is speed and quickness. Did not play in 2010 due to violating
NCAA extra benefits rule. Jeremy Beal is an instinctive end who plays well
on his feet. Plays with good outside leverage and is tough to hook. Allen
Bailey has played in both 3 and 4 man front packages. Played lower in
2010. Has a tendency to raise up. Can be turned out and walled off if he loses
knee bend.
