Sure would have been nice to see Proctor lose 20lbs over the summer rather than gain 6lbs...

I wished he would have lost a few as well. Hopefully it's muscle.

 

[DrollTide]

How did I miss a 6' 7" QB?

 

[AlistarWills]

Thought he was one of Oats guys.

And at 252 lbs. I had not heard of him until I saw this list.

 

[bamadwain]

Daniel Hill at 244 is a load!

 

[BamaMoon]

Daniel Hill at 244 is a load!

I see where JessN pushed back on some comparing him to none other than Derrek Henry, which is obviously waaaay premature, but man, if he has any elusiveness with that type of size he'll be fun to watch!

Remember he was limited this spring and summer. Not worried about his weight at all.

Quick position group thoughts:

OL: 8 of the 13 listed gained weight. I know there was a thought that we'd be going smaller/lighter, but the definition of lighter might still be heavier than we thought initially with the average listed weight being 324 which includes Proctor as a super heavy outlier. Brailsford isn't listed as gaining or losing (curious) so he'd bring that down some since he's just 290 and our only scholarship guy under 305, but our 2 deep other than those two are in the 320-330 range.

Interior DL. slightly lighter, but still trending toward 300+ (I excluded Hill as I think he's still a tweaner Bandit/DL). All but 1 added weight.

Bandit: More spread here, but between 265-280 with a couple (Henry +20, Collins -10) making big moves to get into that range. This is the biggest change from the Saban era. Under Saban we'd just run three bigs (IDL) OR, 2 OLBs so depending on the situation in the past we'd either be bigger or smaller on average across the front. This is probably a better balance, and as Jess has mentioned, it's likely we still have a 2OLB package and also will run a "heavy" group taking out the OLBs and putting in 2 Bandits.

ILB: pretty narrow range with everyone being +/- 5 from 230 (other than Reese at 224) . Not a big change from what we are used to. maybe slightly smaller, but just barely. The gains and losses put most players into the 225-230 range.

WOLF: Like Bandit - a bigger spread. All are a few pounds +/- from 245 other than Latham being the big exception at 262, having lost a boat load of weight to get to that. All others listed have been adding weight so it would appear the preference is 245 or greater, so maybe just slightly lighter than the Jack/Sam prototype but it's a bit hard to say b/c 1) it's a small(ish) group, 2) we moved Latham over to get beef, AND 3) will likely play a 2 Bandit package to be heavier. It could be that the staff prefers a slightly bigger body type than we currently have and just haven't been able to get there yet.

RB: Only one guy sub 210. Not much of a change.

TE: All but Lindsay gained weight, and he only lost a couple down to 255. The lone sub 250 guy was also the biggest gainer (Pritchett, +13 to 248) and only Edwards at 264 is meaningfully above 255 with no significant difference (at least in weight) between guys expected to play H versus Y. Maybe a merge to where it's just TE, and we expect guys to be able to play either spot to allow more flexibility, or the staff is thinking they'll be using more 11 personnel.

QB: no meaningful movement, I'd have like Russell to add a bit more TBH, but he's young with time.

DB: All the DBs but Taylor and Sabb added weight and they were just -1. Doesn't appear to be a big change from our prior preferences.

WR: All over the board, which I think is pretty normal given the different spots and roles for outside/slot, etc.

 

[JDCrimson]

So you think he can lose 30lbs in the next 6 weeks? We dont need a 370# LT in any offense...

Time have changed. No, but he did say he wants to drop between 10-15lbs by the time first game is played.

I think you need to put trust in the coaches and strength team to make that happen. Also, don't forget that could be muscle mass... and less body fat.
