The Gravedigger's job was to clog up the middle which he did well.

Had some sacks as well.

Philip Loadholt, OT from OU that was drafted by the Vikings. 6'-8" 345 lbs. Even from the upper deck of Kyle Field he looked massive.

The Ravens had Sam Adams and Tony Siragusa on their DL in the early 2000s. Those were two enormous human beings.

There have been bigger players in high school. There was a guy in Bama in the early 80s who was well over 400 lbs.

Always think of Spellman when I think of a beast. Guy was mentally crazy on top of that.

Had no idea.

Figured if 50 cent coins were real they would at least use a presidents face.
