Current VT commit (Grimes may already have had him on his radar). Even though he's 19 he's rather thin at 6'5" 280. Listed as the 106th best at his position by 247.

That Grimes really isn't that valuable to our staff. Flame away but we had a very talented OL this past year and they weren't dominant by any stretch. There's a reason Auburn fans didn't like him and Malzahn would not retain him.

He may be visiting this weekend per 247.

What do I think? I think it's a last-minute reach for a guy we don't really want because Grimes can't close on the kids we do want. That's two straight years without recruiting a polished tackle prospect and shows the importance of signing homegrown guys like Cam Robinson and Tillery.

Meh - depends on the frame - if that's filled out, that would be a concern - but, 20% is easily doable for a 6'4" or taller kid at 280 or 290 and 19. So, while 310 is most likely, 330 - 335 is even possible - if the kid has the frame.
And honestly, a 6'5" tackle doesn't need excess weight over 300 anyway - if he has long arms, quick feet and understands leverage - 6'5" and 300, 305 is all you need - although he will have to work on raw strength for the running game.

Could be real interest, a back up plan, or just a smoke screen to disguise who we are really after.
