So, just how big a "Hog Molly" would you like?

[Mr. Scot]

Want a 6'7, 400 plus pound O-Lineman who can fill in at tight end?

Well, such a thing exists.

Baylor OL LaQuan McGowan weighs in at a cool 405 pounds at Bears' Pro Day.

From his college bio...

Quote

Played all 13 games and made one start as tight end in senior season, earned All-Big 12 honorable mention from league coaches... Had two receptions on season, both for touchdowns (23 total yards), rushed once for two yards.

Guys who top 400 don't generally make it in the NFL.

I wouldn't be against giving him a shot in camp (probably very low round or more likely undrafted) but I really wouldn't expect much.

He's a neat story, though.

whoever designed that helmet should win the nobel peace prize

This is him next potential top 10 pick at DT, Andrew Billings. Billings is 6'2" 300 lbs. He doesn't just dwarf normal human beings, but enormous humans as well.

This poor LB

I have sympathy for his knees.

Saw he put up 30 reps of the 225 bench press.

he is too big he is playing with too much weight and its killing his lateral quickness. he needs to lose at least 100 pounds and move to OT. He could be a great tackle with his good feet OR he could drop 150 and play TE that would be much tougher

[Mr. Scot]

Guys that big often wind up being nose guards.

Bio says he played defensive line in high school.

That reminds me of one of those shots in the movies where they cut away rather than showing you what happened next.

Read where Baylor coaches instituted a 'no contact' policy with him when he was practicing as a tight end.  The policy wasn't to protect him,, but the defenders who would try to tackle him.

[Mr. Scot]

McGowan catching an 18 yard touchdown...

 

[The Huddler]

I guess it would be fun to watch in camp but no way he would make it in the NFL. Defensive linemen would just get up undernieth him and out leverage him. Plus a guy that unnatural size wont be able to move the way he needs to.. If he does thete will be injuries for this guy in his lower body. Soft tissue might grow but bones and ligaments stay the same

Is it too much to ask for a 6'8" 500lbs. RB that can run a 3.8 40 with a 50" vertical jump and a 19'8" broad jump?

[Mr. Scot]

I can't really see it working out, but if he could get to a reasonable weight for his size and be coached up, it'd be intriguing.

Imagine him running a tackle eligible in the end zone.
