Dudes a moose man. We need some guys like this. Our staff can trim him up a little and we could have a good college d-lineman. We've had good luck in St. Louis hopefully it continues with this guy

What are you guys talking about? 315 for a DT is average, at best. I think you've been trained to see the 250-270lb runts we've had at the position for many years.

I'll take as many 300+ interior defensive linemen I can get. They clog running lanes and if they are athletic and can rush, force double teams. They keep guards and centers off your linebackers, so on and so forth.

You need space eaters. Weis and Company knows this. I hope we get 2-3 300lb DTs this year. If there is a Vince Wilfork clone out there, I'll take 'em.

Heaven help us. Please, no more of those guys unless they are defensive ENDS.

What I meant was, they can trim a few pounds off of him, which will make that 5.2 forty time drop a few tenths. I'd rather have a 290 pound d-lineman with more quickness, than a 315 lb. who can't move and put pressure on the qb on third down.

Look what the Bears did with their d-line when Lovie took over. They all lost pounds and were quicker. None of them weigh 300 and their d-line was pretty damn solid this year.

the comment I made about his size is that he is big enough NOW!! What happens in the rest of this year can only be a good thing.
