Jordan Williams came in @ 280lbs. Has he ate his way inside?

Apparently he's added about 20 lbs to his high school playing weight, but by all accounts, its not bad weight at all. He's still just growing into his "man body". Does he turn into that Corey Crawford-ish monster DE at 280 plus, do they lean him up to get him back to our more typical DE range of 260-270, or do they consider moving him inside as it appears that's where his body naturally wants to take him?

Well if by all accounts it is good weight, why did you ask if he has ate his way inside? That's the exact opposite of good weight. Seems like a dumb way to word that

There aren't many pro players that play DE in a 4-3 at that weight. It's hard to keep the speed you need playing at that weight, it takes a true freak of nature to be able to do that. Let's hope he's one of those rare "freaks".

don't believe he'll go thru "mat drills" until early 2018. mat drills precede spring practice. if his body needs changing, Batson and crew will have about 6 months to do it before mat drills.

You might be right, I thought that they had mat drills in the summer before August. Found out its in what, February time frame? So, I stand corrected. Assuming he is already in school, I'm sure the S&C staff will handle it.

Certain guys are just built bigger

and it sounds like Jordan might not be done growing yet. If he can keep his fast-twitch first step and add more weight. He could be a menace as a 3T.
