BurpleBull Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 39 minutes ago, The Jokeman said: How big was he in school? One site shows he was two lbs. shy of 280 lbs. at some point while in school, I just read an interview that was published January this year and he states that he's 270 lbs. Looking at his build in the picture I would've guessed his natural position was always LB. Compares himself to Michael Bennett...that would definitely be welcomed.

Dadonkadonk Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Too small for real Division 1 school. Way too small for NFL. At best a PS body for the OL to beat on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
