would be nice to have one of those big 330lb+ space eaters in the middle. Don't know why we never seem to be able to recruit, or build in the weight program, one or two of those types every now and then.
We did. Al Woods and Chris Davenport were both those types, but neither panned out. 330 is fricking huge for a college kid. Chances are if you're that big, you're fat and not athletic enough to play. 330+ pounders are for grown men in the NFL, not college.

I feel Chavis values DT's that are very disruptive and can pass rush over a guy who takes up space and just plays the run. I would, however, like to see us having one or two of those mammoth Tennessee NT's such as Henderson and Haynesworth. Maybe Brockers can get that big by his senior year.

al woods wasn't 330 lbs when he came out
we made him lose weight and tried to turn him into a 1-gap player and it was a failure
that's why we don't have huge DTs. just isn't our system. that's why when we do get huge DTs, they bust quite often

the NFL laughs at this
there are plenty of fat DTs doing quite well in the NFL. i think they're a little more advanced that college
