The thing you have to keep in mind is that DE's aren't just for rushing the QB, though that is important. They have critical responsibilities on reverses, options, and screen passes. They also sometimes drop back into zone pass coverage while others blitz. You will notice that Ohio often moves guys back and forth from MLB to DE - its an athletic position, but it also requires intelligence and a good understanding of the whole defense. I like seeing DE's in the 240-260lb range, with 4.6-4.7 speed. This guy looks like a good fit.
