That's beastly. Wonder how we're going to use him on the field. Maybe he can flex lining up at TE especially if he blocks well making defenses struggle with choosing the personnel to match up without knowing where he'll line up or shift to. That's the kind of idea we were floating as the offensive approach especially with the skill personnel we inherited, but we didn't see it play out that way. Obviously poor OL play and a QB that struggled to consistently hit the opening we created through scheme/alignment/personnel made it look a lot less effective. We have reason to expect it to work differently moving forward.

They talked about club 1010 during the ugag game and basically it's Collins' offseason philosophy to gain 10 pounds and 10 feet (?) towards their team goals each day.

I am so looking forward to getting Camp back. Losing him made life for our QBs a lot more difficult on short and intermediate routes.

As to the rest: many of our OLs don't need 10 more pounds. They need to solidify what they gained last year. It's like what one of Stalin's economic advisors told him about the second 5 Year Plan. "We have built an industrial economy. Now we have to make it work." We have some DLs and OLs who could use more weight and strength, but most need conditioning more. If I see an OL on the field next year that averages around 305 and doesn't show much in the way of a gut anywhere, I think we'll be much better off.

Some of the RBs could use some more weight too, provided it is solid.

The average size of a TE in the NFL is only 6'3. It's all about matchups. Brown is only 5'10...maybe and by far our best WR
Brown is our best receiver because he is ridiculously fast and can adjust on the run extremely well to get under the ball, but he's not the guy you lob one to the corner of the end zone for and let him win a jump ball, that's what the tall guys are for.

Sooo you're saying that camp wouldn't be a great matchup against a linebacker?
