At one cone line up a running back or ball carrier and at the other line up a line backer or tackler facing the opposite direction of the ball carrier.

At the coaches whistle have the ball carrier proceed at full speed down the sideline.  The tackler then has to locate the ball carrier and pursue him taking the proper angle of attack.
