Well if it comes down to second round DT's Moore seems like a much better prospect. Harrison on the other hand doesn't really seem like a three technique (though scouting reports claim he can play both DT spots) so I doubt the front office gives him a look. I think if anything the search for a DT would be between
Kentwan Balmer,
Trevor Laws,
Dre Moore, and
DeMario Pressley (if they decide to address the need in the later rounds).
Pat Sims is also on that list but he doesn't have the production or potential that you'd get from a guy like Dre Moore.
On second thought Sims might not be so bad if the coaching staff can work with him.
Also, I found my answer on Gosder Cherilus.
NFL Events: Combine Player Profiles - Gosder Cherilus
Compares To: CORNELL GREEN-Oakland...Cherilus is a classic mauler who excels on down and drive blocks as a run blocker, but he proved in 2007 that he lacks the lateral agility and kick-slide to handle speed moves on
the outside and will be a better fit at right tackle or inside at guard. He is not fluid enough to maintain position and mirror from left tackle. He has incredibly long reach and large hands and hits with good pop, but he is inconsistent shooting those hands and needs to be more active or it will negate one of his better assets. Struggled quite a bit with the snap count as a senior, resulting in a slew of penalties. If judged on what he did at right tackle in 2006, he will be an early-round pick.
To me thats awesome. He can play inside at Guard until Jansen retires in which case he can move to LT. If this scouting report is true though then I have to say he reminds me of the Eagles Shaun Andrews.
