Clutch03 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 That, and I'm sure he's sucking it in.Still, nowhere near as bad as Michael Oher's mighty man boobs IMO. I hope he does well. :helmet: You know I thought he was sucking it in too ... but why suck your stomach in for a head shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 agreed. no way hes 400 LBs in that pic, and if thats 400 pounds, hes gonna murder people in training camp cause he looks somewhat lean for a big dude. Agreed. He doesn't look fat, he just looks like a big, strong guy. A VERY big, strong guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickalino Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Mr. Williams, you can exhale now.[/img] Way to suck in that gut, Mike. Yep, that is exactly what he is doing - it's too obvious. You know I thought he was sucking it in too ... but why suck your stomach in for a head shot? But you can only suck in SO MUCH, when you're 410 pounds......so let's see, his "sucking in" made him look a slender 398 ? Why bother, when you're 410 ?

That was my point also. I'm beginning to believe he isn't sucking it in because it was a head shot photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Guy. Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Man I wonder how much his knees can take during the season. Supporting all that weight and then consider constantly blocking defenders and add in their weight. I wouldn't be surprised if his knees blow out. I hope it doesn't happen though.

Burgundy Burner Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 That was my point also. I'm beginning to believe he isn't sucking it in because it was a head shot photo. He's 6'6" - so he can suck in a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it depends on how strong his calf muscles are, the muscles below the knee that support it. Maybe he does some mad calf exercises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickalino Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 On a side note, Chris Samuels looks like he is in great shape[/img] That is an amazing contrast between 2 tackles. Samuels looks like a WR in that photo, compared to Williams. At first, I almost didn't believe it was actually Samuels, and thought it was a joke.

Clutch03 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Matt Terl is the guy on Redskins Nation right? If anyone knows Redskins Nation's email address off hand ask him if Mike was sucking it in in the pic. I'm sure they will read the email on air.

chow184 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 he looks extremely top heavy,I hope he can move around well,and I hope he can get his conditioning good to go before training camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clutch03 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I think Larry Michaels is the dude on Redskins Nation. Yeah Larry Michaels is the host but they have another guy on there that helps him answer the fan questions. And I thought it might be the same guy that does this blog.

bubba9497 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I keep hearing how he's big, but not fat.Big deal. Who cares about that. The questions is, whether he's agile enough to play RT and handle the speed rushers at DE. If not, then maybe he belongs at Guard......or backup, or off the roster. He can be a huge pillar, but if he can't move, the DE's will just go around him. Buges was said to have been impressed by his workout. I doubt the Skins would have bothered with a contract if he could not move enough to play in the NFL Doc Walker said he was "explosive" off the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam291 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Even if he's not fat and has a relatively low body fat to muscle ratio for someone that size, it still is probably too much for him to have the necessary stamina and durability that can play every down in a game for a whole season. He'll probably always be a big guy even for a OT, but he should bring his weight down to extend his playing time. Most coaches say that rookies who are a little out of shape don't need to do anything special to get into NFL shape since the practices, OTAs and minicamps will do it alone. Assuming Williams stays around through preseason, all the regular goings on will take care of most of the weight issue. He just can't cheat and has to work hard.

gutlead74 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 coming out of the draft he was proven to be very agile. he does look like he is in good shape, I restate my previous concerns about his back and that much weight. Honestly though if you look at his bone structure he has the frame to support this weight. huge shoulders, big hips etc... i have a new found hope for this guy, hell i loved him in the draft the back issues is my concern. from what i remember he also has a great personality.
