That is inaccurate. There were more saying that would not happen than said it would. Weight was mentioned as one factor as if 280+ wasn't big enough.

They are just bodies.
IMO, that is also not accurate. I have said that Jones is more of a body...at least on the edge...but Shand is not an average player. He is above average and simply didn't get enough playing time.

That’s because 280 isn’t big enough to play a true DT position. They need to add another 15-20 pounds to even have a chance at being successful there.
Again most people weren’t saying that it wouldn’t happen. We were saying that it’s not a good thing to have to do that.

“Knowing” and “saying” are two different things. A very high percentage of the people who post in those kinds of threads are sky-is-falling types, including you notastargazer. I didn’t post an opinion, because I figure the coaches know what they’re doing. But I figured Shand and Jones would get a lot of snaps inside, particularly on passing downs. I’m sure there were a lot of posters like me who you never heard from on that.
