manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 The problem is that Cody had major incentive to lose weight (for the Combine). If the Bills take him 9th overall, he'll get major coin and incentive to keep his weight down will be a lot harder. It has to come from within and there's no way to measure that. Super Bowl and Hall of fame are not. Not to metion being among the best at your position its not as much about coin as you think. This is were football character comes in.
manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 and then bounced up and down without maintaining. The larger you are the more your weight fluctuates.

manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 You just can't win around here. First he was a loser because he couldn't even get is weight under control when his future and millions of dollars depended on it (senior bowl). Then when he does get his weight down when his future and millions of dollars depend on it (combine) he's still a loser because he only did it because his future and millions of dollars depended on it! And he was the same dominating presence in every game he played in, including his post season games THAT HE WON. So what does his weight during those games have to do with anything? Screw it, he should go undrafted and then come crawling into Buffalo on his hands and knees begging for a chance to sign with the team. If he does that, then MAYBE he's worth it. MAYBE. People see what they want.
manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I can't believe how many people don't want a 350-370 lb NT who will be the biggest NT in the NFL clogging up the middle. Haven't we learned anything from 4 years of watching our undersized Dline get blown up almost every snap? If he move quickly at 370 then the bigger the better.

manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Will we be as sorry when you learn how to spell? This is a blog. Not a class room for spelling and grammer. Another ELA teacher makes some noise.
Doc Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Okay, we know Suh is probably gone by 9th overall. If both McCoy and Cody are there, who should the Bills take? I think that with the move to the 3-4, taking a NT first is pretty much a no-brainer.
manbeast Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 When he goes camping, the bears hide their food! That was good
Ghost of Rob Johnson Posted February 27, 2010 Author Posted February 27, 2010 Okay, we know Suh is probably gone by 9th overall. If both McCoy and Cody are there, who should the Bills take? I think that with the move to the 3-4, taking a NT first is pretty much a no-brainer. Huh? McCoy is probably gone by pick 3. Cody isn't an option at 9.

Gotta Dream Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 the only way I touch the guy is with a major contract clause that he keeps his weight in a certain range. Contract clause that allows the whole team to give him titty twisters on a weekly basis, if he gets about 350.
Steely Dan Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 The larger you are the more your weight fluctuates. Not like his has, if a guy is disciplined. When he goes camping, the bears hide their food! If the Bills draft him we can call him Breast Mode.
DanInUticaTampa Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 He lost some more lbs Meanwhile "Mount Cody" continues to eraod. NFL Network's Steve Wyche reports that defensive tackle Terrence Cody weighed in at 349 pounds, five less than he was at the combine. He was 370 pounds at the Senior Bowl. Before long, he'll be down to Wilforkian levels. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...s-down-further/
NoSaint Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 Kinda like Maybin suddenly weighing 250 for last year's combine, huh? Artificial weight gain/loss is just that. That doesn't mean Cody might not be an excellent player -- I'll leave that evaluation up to those who get paid to make those decisions -- but people should not put much stock in short term weight changes. I mean, yea, the last 5-15 might be flux weight for him but hes down from an official 410, 2 years ago, and reportedly upwards of 420 plus. This isnt just a 3 week diet for him.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 You gotta go Dan Williams with pick 9 here if you want to nail NT right? You get a strong 330 lb'er who can run a 5.17 40. Wilfork like. Cody was over 5.7 at 354 lbs... just plain heavy does not = good NT IMO http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings/TSX/

The best pick for them, IMO, is Dan Williams.
Big Hurt Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 If Bryan Bulaga is there at #9, I would pick him instead of Cody for sure. Fat guys are dime a dozen. That doesn't mean they could play nose tackle. Otherwise, we could have converted Mike Williams to a nose tackle and did not have to cut him.

I am interested in seeing what he can bench but after he did not bench at the combine I would never spend a 1st on him.
CarolinaBill Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 I am interested in seeing what he can bench but after he did not bench at the combine I would never spend a 1st on him. i believe it was b/t 22-25 reps @225, also, he sounded pretty mad about the "he'll eat his way out of the league talk" so there's your motivation, take him at 42 and we got the middle plugged for a decade, he's not just fat he's nimble too, blocked 3 kicks ya know, and can do a back flip.
