Do u actually think he's effective at that weight. Name one defensive end who is quick off the ball playing at 290lbs?

Mario Williams is close, but he's got about 4 inches on Grant.

It's bad, and I have little faith, but Grant himself was effective in the 280s before the 07 season. And you don't absolutely have to be super quick to be an effective DE. One can use strength to get around an OT, problem is he just flat out sucks getting pressure now. I think he's having some ankle problems and more of his significant weight is in the form of fat than in the past.
