Yeah, I wasn't 100% sure if he was drafted that. But yes, I did mean this Okoye. Workout warrior whos size, speed and strength would be great if he could learn to play the position.

That and I imagine if they had 3 underwhelming players, cut them and bring in 3 more.

Broaddus' thoughts. Unusually negative.
http://www.dallascowboys.com/news/2016/06/08/scouts-eye-standouts-ota-9-reports-new-signings
Quick scouting report of newly signed defensive end Lawrence Okoye. The tape I studied was from his time with the 49ers, where he played as a 3-4 defensive end. He’s a powerful player but tends to be slow off the ball. Even when he reads first, his reactions are not where they need to be. He will play square down the line to defend the run, and his best pass rush move is his bull rush. He can push the pocket and drive blockers back. He was able to accomplish this against La’el Collins last preseason without much trouble. There’s not much initial quickness or effectiveness in the twist game, and he tends to play upright. Put himself in position to make plays but had trouble when he had to finish.
Another quick scouting report – this one of newly signed offensive tackle Bryan Witzmann. I was able to study Witzmann with the Houston Texans, where he lined up at left tackle. This is a wide-base player that doesn’t play with much power in his upper or lower body. He has a hard time when he has to deal with a rusher that plays with power. Witzmann struggled to make the cut-off block. He allowed his man to work inside and chase the ball. Tends to catch his man instead of drive them off the ball. Has trouble controlling his man because his lack of power. There are times where his footwork causes his body balance to become off. Had trouble handling the spin move of the rusher. Poor versus quickness.
Last quick scouting report, this one of newly signed linebacker Brandon Hepburn. I went back two seasons ago, when Hepburn played for the Detroit Lions. He lines up as an inside linebacker. Long, rangy build with some snap to his punch. Powerful blitzer that can make things happen when he pushes the pocket – but he is not a smooth or fluid-moving player. Doesn’t play with much of a burst or quickness. There were snaps where the ball appeared to be moving and he was a tick late on the reaction. It took him time to get going once he saw the ball. He also had some issues when he had to fight through the trash to get to the ball. He didn’t get bounced around, but it wasn’t easy for him to get there. Can tackle once in position but getting there is a chore. Good angles on short zone drops in pass coverage but anything outside of that is going to cause a problem. More of a physical player than an athletic one.

I only had to turn the flux capacitor to about 25 percent for that one. I can go much further back than that, unfortunately.
