you wont find any 220 CBs in the NFL, much less elite ones.


there is no need for a CB to be that big. 210, which he played at last year, is the tipping point for CBs.


If he wants to play safety, fine. HE'd make a badass FS. But as of right now he is a CB.

We dont have LB's that big.


CBs have to be fluid and flexibile...adding that much weight isn't a good thing. Freak or not. HE can be a freak at 210. He can be a freak at 200. HE could be a freak at 195. 222 # is ridiculous

The point is he'll lose a some of that weight during fall camp out in the heat.

He'll probably be around 205-210 for the start of the season.

PP weighing 220 come fall is not ideal. He should be 210 max imo

I'm worried about...

Dworacyzk (296). Still not enough and will probably get lighter after fall camp.

Hebert (280). Our only true backup option at center and he lost 5 pounds? Really? Not even working out with the team this summer?

Taylor/Eugene (189 + 195). Not that those are bad weights for them, but this is the lightest I can ever remember our safeties being.

Peterson (222). Jesus is this dude going to be moved to OLB or something? I'm sure he'll still be every bit elite but that's just quite a bit overweight for a true corner.

Levingston (280). This guy is supposed to start at DT and is 6'4 280? Man we might get ran on bad up the middle this year.

Downs (277). Only gained a couple pounds since last year? Bulk up son!

Minter (225). For a MLB he's pretty light, why the drop from 240?

Branch (287). Way too light for an OG.

Toliver (203). Not that this is a bad weight for him, but I thought we'd see him gain a little weight going into his last year. 203 is a little slim for a 6'5 WR.




Nothing too bad, just some concerns.
