Not even Bruce was 6-8 and 300. Groot will fill into his body just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You no longer have to worry about classes, school etc. It's football. Work is now - working out, film study, studying, nutrition, and recovery. And IF they are smart once they sign the contract they can afford to pay for professional help and equipment during off season. And off season should not be party, spend all that money, season. Hopefully they take lessons from Deshaun Watson on what NOT to expect from professional help. And not get their feet frostbit like Antonio Brown. Don't be cheap or stupid. A coworker of mine at previous job was who was a PS player who played some snaps on 53 for JEST and a lot of equipment at home. There are places which have hypobaric chambers athletes can pay for or even buy one for home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campbell, ofc, has mentored Rousseau throughout the Draft process. Good to see the young one soaking it all in. I always thought Rousseau was a big dude. But Campbell makes him look puny. He is teaching Rousseau a power move - but is Rousseau big and strong enough for that? Anyways - something to look at during the slow news period. Campbell 2" taller and 40 lbs heavier according to Wiki, which would have him playing a bit heavier than his long-ago combine workout 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This myth seems to be perpetuated by that viral image of him standing next to McD which had a lot to do with forced perspective. The offensive linemen we drafted? Yeah, those are big dudes. Our offensive line should certainly lead the league in rebounding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very wealthy and relatively exclusive private school that sees itself more like Princeton-south than a football factory. That has been, without question, the primary problem with advancing the football program. They only want to be passively successful in sports.........it would be distasteful to try hard like some "state" school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 20 hours ago, DCofNC said: To be 21 and that big already, wow. Campbell has added a LOT of weight over the years. Look at him, his rookie season and there’s where Rousseau sits now. https://www.amazon.com/Campbell-autographed-Football-Arizona-Cardinals/dp/B0825CDHQV#immersive-view_1624974905991 That’s what I remember of Campbell a decade ago. Groot is going to use his speed and grow into his body. Without PED’d it takes time to put pure muscle on naturally even with natural supplements, proper nutrition and training hard. Most natural guys working incredibly hard can put on may 7-10lbs. of muscle a year. I’m not worried as he’ll employ different skills Throughout his career. I didn’t expect him to do anything more than packages for him. He hasn’t played football in 18 mos. so it’s pretty aggressive to think he’ll start. Basham is more likely to get into the rotation this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rousseau follows the Campbell path to fitness, he too can be a 280-290 lb guy. Beane said two contradictory things while introducing Rousseau a. Rousseau is still growing into his body b. He sees Rousseau at his ideal weight now (260 lb) I interpret this as: Nobody knows how much more growing Rousseau has in him. If he stays 6' 6", then 260 lbs is his ideal weight. If he grows more, he might put on more weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
