In addition to the pro days mentioned earlier, today is a big day for two very different pass rushers.

When California and Texas A&M hold their pro days today, there will be plenty of defensive line coaches in attendance. They'll be watching the Golden Bears' Cameron Jordan and the Aggies' Von Miller.

Both, particularly Miller, are getting serious attention as top 10 picks in the 2011 NFL Draft. Miller is a speed rusher through and through and a hot candidate as a 3-4 outside linebacker.

Jordan’s game is based on power, motor and aggression. He played in the Cal 3-4 and may be viewed the same way as a pro. He should also be able to hold the power end in a 4-3 scheme. Although Jordan ran only a 4.85 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, he’s gets around the edge with strength and enough quickness.
Conceivably, Dallas (pick No. 9), San Francisco (No. 7), Cleveland (No. 6), Arizona (No. 5) and Buffalo (No. 3) could all be in play for both Jordan and Miller.
