I'm willing to bet that he said "IF you can get Dilophosaurus DNA".

Indeed that is what I said.

Dilophosaurus lived in the Early Jurassic. The earliest blood sucking insects appear in the fossil record around the Middle Jurassic. So, bugs in amber will probably not help.

You could try to find some DNA in Dilo's bones. The article DNA in bones shows there is some evidence T. rex and Brachylophosaur bones from the Late Cretaceous still contain DNA. So, MAYBE some of the Dilo bones still contain DNA. At least they could contain proteins. Which is something.
