OL 2026

I've thought the same. People talk about tall OTs as "massive" but I'd rather have a guy 6'5" at 320 than 6"9" at that weight. The center of gravity location is a big deal, as is the lateral quickness, and shorter is better for both.
On the other hand, I don't really know anything, so FWIW.

Agree completely. You want good size in your tackles, but the way football has gone the past 20-30 years athleticism is even more important. And in picking Campbell and Lomu the Patriots have 2 tackles who rated in the top 1% RAS since 1986. Both will get stronger and improve their technique as they get more experience, and the Patriots should have tackle resolved for years to come, with contracts being the biggest obstacle the team will face.

This has nothing to do with anything of importance but why does Campbell have his shirt tucked into his pants. Who does that when they workout? Plus no shorts. He just looks so out of place among the others based on his attire alone. A nothing burger but it jumps off the page when I look at these pictures and as someone who is in the gym on a regular basis. Anyway hoping for the best for Will. Will be interested to see how this year goes for him.
