Highsmith is more of a technician and hustle guy with the pass rush. Watched some tape of him at Charlotte and already saw he had at least 4 pass rush moves and a high motor. The thing he doesnt have that Dupree had is the freakish athleticism and closing speed. So I think Highsmith is going to put the work in and be solid in the run game and I think he is going to be better at getting pressures than Dupree, but we will see if he puts up big sack number, or just "gets close to the QB a lot of times", because he may not be the athlete that will get home as much. Either way, I like the young man, the pick and feel good with him and Roche in the mix.
