WitPs: More David Veikune

NFL.com has a video of the defensive linemen taking on the offensive linemen at Senior Bowl practice. There's footage of David Veikune beating his man at the beginning of the video and then at twice more starting at the 3:07 mark. It might start with a commercial.

DraftCountdown.com has a brief mention of Veikune.
Hawaii DE David Veikune mostly tried to speed rush off the edge and when that didn't work he was basically finished and rendered useless.
TFYdraft.com has a better review from Wednesday's practice.
Wednesday Practice Notes: Not quite the performance seen yesterday, but still solid. Veikune excelled rushing the passer but was not as effective against the run. The end definitely had troubles holding his ground against the likes of Mississippi’s Michael Oher on this day. He did display a nice speed rush off the edge against some of the heavier tackles in drills.
And here's another review from Tuesday, from DraftDaddy.com:
Hawaii DE David Veikune showed excellent speed around the edge, and a nice inside rip in pass rush drills, getting the better of some pretty highly touted athletes. Veikune is a player who might get washed out at the point of attack when a team runs at him, but stopping the run probably isn't going to pay his bills. He could be an interesting stand up 3-4 LB prospect.
