Because sometimes a good defense will play 2 gap to throw off the offense or to stuff the run
Or these 350lb nose guards are in high school shape and not college shape. Maybe the coaches project the kid losing 30-40 pounds and being a more one-gap player.

For the record, I think Tyler Shelvin is down to like 325 - practically svelte for a man that big.
