We need to get back to the big guys like we had before. I remember just a few years ago when you would hear announcers say the Packers don't worry about the running game until the weather gets back and thats when the big guys up front would dominate. I think the ZBS belongs to teams in domes and nice weather not on the frozen tundra. Put the beef there and get one on one and dominate. If you remember Green wasn't much of a flashy runner he was more straight ahead and go.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Maybe put in Pickett. Or it's yet another one of Finley's well hidden talents.

As the roster stands now?

Clifton is probably going to still start on the left-side, and I'd imagine Colledge will back him up again. With Clifton's bum wheels though, I could definitely see Colledge splitting more snaps between Guard and LT this year to help take some pressure off Clifton.

Spitz and Wells will probably duke it out for the starting center job and Preston will "compete" for one of the guard positions, but I'd imagine he will ultimately end up being a backup/rotational player for one of the guard positions behind Sitton and Colledge.

Right side, if Tauscher doesn't come back, it's probably Giacomini's job to lose, but I'm sure Moll will compete for the job. Not that either is a very good option at this point. OT, considering how deep this draft is at the position, will probably be addressed with at least one of our 4 picks in the first 3 rounds of this draft.

How much do you think Rivera, Flanagan, and Wahle weighed?

Probably most of you on here would be shocked. According to pro-football-reference, 310, 297, and 307, respectively.

Tony Mandarich weigth 311 at 6-5.

I really think it doesn't matter that much if you know how to use these guys well. It's more about skill than just being a fat man and pushing people away. I guess it's more of a preference than anything else.

Honestly, weight has a factor, but learning to play with leverage and balance is even more important.
