re: Just a casual 405 bench to fire up the boys.

The long range of motion is a big deal. 405 itself isn't terribly impressive for a tackle or guard but with the long arms and doing it 3 times is impressive. I think he had at least 1 more in him.
Can't wait to watch the dude play. He is a slim tackle for sure but looks awesome.

His body looks like a taller Aaron Donald.
Looking forward to watching him ragdoll people.

Put your beer bottle down and raise your hand if you can squat that 1 rep.

You're probably talking about ROM advantage. And that only slightly applies as you get taller. The fact that Jordan actually has the arm length of someone about 6 foot two or three literally gives him an advantage because he has more muscle mass potential but doesn't have the disadvantage of the arm length.
So not only are you just wrong, but it's the complete opposite.
An NFL lineman who is 6 foot four has an average arm length of 33 to 34 inches. Jordan's arms are 33 and 3/8 inches. Even at 6 foot three the average is 33 to 33 1/2 inches. Is that also so tall that their bench would be impressive?
So who's the retard? Also how you're built has a factor in it.
So like I said, that's about right for his size. Even though it sounds like an impressive number.

Eric Andolsek had a legit 525 bench (no shirts, no spotters grabbing the bar, full ROM, etc.), 455 power clean, 750 squat. He was one strong sob. RIP.
And built like a square block of granite. Gone way too young!

there was only 2 guys on that 1987 team who could bench a single over 400
eric andolsek- about 500 at LSU
nacho albergamo - 465

???? dude is 6’5” over 300 lbs and struggled to get 3 half assed reps.
It’s 2026 that’s really not even a little bit impressive. Dude is legit weak as hell for his size

I love it when I see an LSU athlete be able to bench press my warm up weight.
