Da'Quan Bowers projects best in a 4-3 defense that emphasizes penetrating defensive ends and offers strong interior line play to create one-on-one pass-rush opportunities.
Year 1 rotational pass rusher who develops into a primary edge setter and inside counter as a solid starter.
A true 3-4 two-gapping defense where his primary responsibility would be holding the point of attack against multiple blockers.
His size and pass-rushing ability make him a good fit for attacking 4-3 fronts, though his run defense could be a liability against gap schemes.
Selected #51 overall in Round 2 of the 2011 NFL Draft by Tampa Bay Buccaneers out of Clemson.
