Soliciting opinions from BodyBuilders and others, as we all savor the Great Work our boys are forging, tonight...
Steve Maneri was a major Binkie of mine, this past Draft...as an Offensive End.
At 6.7/265, that seemed like the right way to go, to me.
But as y'all know, the Planet Hoostens drafted him ~ and Coach Bill, God BLESS him!! ~ HOISTED him...as an Offensive Tackle.
And, now...He's listed at 290 pounds.
My question is this: It seems to me that the optimum weight for Offensive Tackles in his height range is about 310/315...Is it realistic to strive to beef up a guy 45-50 pounds worth??
He is halfway there, of course, if those numbers are all accurate.

The reason I was so passionate about Steve Maneri, this Spring, is because he is a ferocious Blocker ~ a savage, destructive Force.
And those who don't grasp the import of such a player on The Championship Quest...haven't been watching Alge Crumpler's work, this year...and tonight.
