Dante Fowler Jr. has style.

The edge-rusher out of Florida was in Chicago on Thursday for the first round of the NFL Draft. He walked the red carpet with his mother — that's sweet — before taking a seat and waiting to hear his name called.

He didn't wait long, as Jacksonville took him with the No. 3 pick. However, we have to discuss his shoes. Specifically, how awesome they are. Check out these kicks:

TMZ Sports says those sweet kicks are "Gold Spiked Louboutin shoes." No definitive word on the price of that footwear, but FOX Sports' own Peter Schrager has an idea.

Dante Fowler, Jr. (and his $7,000 shoes) is the guy to watch tonight. As I said on @AmericasPregame , multiple teams could go big for him.
