    that's way too heavy, but I could deal with him playing at 350 if it meant he was better equipped - 20 reps at combine is weak. No wonder he fell.

    And, the thing is, he has promise, but it's going to be necessary to show it first. People want to crown him already.

    Dropping from the first round to the fifth ought to be a lot of motivation for him...

    It sounds like he drank the Kool Aid from the last years performance. Which isn't hard for a 21 year old to do. He was a monster then. Hopefully he gets his head on straight when he gets around the vets.

    Get him working out in the sun in Spartanburg and the pounds will melt right off him.

    agreed, and the extra weight would mean less stamina. That'd explain his trouble moving and blocking at the next level. If he can keep his weight in a realistic area (330-350) then he could be a legitimate starter and possibly a good one.
