I've found our NT

He is clearly naturally massive. But I think he needs to lose like fifty pounds. Just my opinion.

Right now he can play both DT spots at once.
 
I would definitely use one of the 5th rounders on him.......spend a year with our trainer and coach him up. He'll have one job........plug the middle
 
Hell, making him a major part of your Tush Push is worth a 5th or 6th IMO.....who's stopping him for 1-2 yards.

 
The dude is going to die on a field on Sunday or during the week if he doesn't cut weight.
There's no way a NFL team doesn't get him to at least drop down to the mid 350-370 range.

From what I read, he was 440 out of HS. Dropped down to 400lb his freshman year. Gators staff must not GAF letting him get to 460lb
 
I feel like it’s borderline malpractice by the Florida football program to allow this kid to be that heavy. Someone should have stepped in and told him he can’t be on the team unless he’s under 400 lbs (and that’s being generous)

I agree. I was reading UF boards about him and some just said the dude just became too big and it wasn't like he was manhandling people at that weight. Just a fat guy out there at times getting too many snaps, and at times getting pushed.
You'd think a D-1 school, that is/was pretty good would have the staff to actually train/get these guys on diet routines. This isn't Tulsa.


 
Is he projected to be drafted?

I wouldn’t spend a pick on him but I wouldn’t mind redshirting him. I’d hire a full time dietitian and trainer just for him and see what 18 months brings.

There’s an athlete in there somewhere and if he can turn some fat into muscle they may just end up with something.

I agree, this guy is naturally massive; probably starve him if you tried to keep him at 300. BUT maybe 375 or under might be all right.

if we can take flyers on Lance and Mingo I say do a UDFA deal for this kid and get his weight down. He is VERY strong.

It sounds ridiculous on the surface, but for the hundreds of millions thrown around this game, and what’s at stake, I don’t think spending like 60k a year on a full time trainer/dietitian would be a bad idea. Absolutely redshirt him for 2025, just work on that body.

Also would get Jerry some headlines. Hell he spent a decade on trying to create the perfect puppet coach, he can invest a year or two in getting a cheap contributor at DT. They’d better get creative because paying Osa more money doesn’t make him a better player. Mazi? Sometimes players bust, and he is well on his way.
