Roberts weighs 1.74 lbs per centimeter of height at 196 cm. In the Super Bowl era, there have been 5 times the left guards and 4 times the right guards have averaged 1.7 lbs or more per centimeter of height. Almost all have occurred since 2005. The exceptions were 3 times the left guards were big in the early 90s- I'm guessing we can thank Dallas for that. Interestingly- to me, at least; I'm sure some here could explain the changes in offensive philosophy (*cough* Patriots *cough*) that have led to this- Super Bowl left guards have gotten smaller since 2005 and right guards have gotten bigger. Also of note, 6'5 is the exact average height of most Super Bowl guards on either side going back to 2005. If Roberts were to play at 330 instead of 340, he would perfectly fit the mold of a Super Bowl right guard at 1.69 lbs per centimeter of height at 196 centimeters, and he'd be a little heavy but the right height for a modern left guard. (He'd be spot on for a left guard in 2010ish.) He doesn't look to be carrying much bad weight, so losing 10 lbs of fat while building muscle might not be quite the slam dunk it seems on a 340 lb dude. But it certainly seems feasible. Finally, this all assumes 340 is accurate. Blah blah numbers aren't always accurate blah.

I try not to feel things and care so much after how the April misery of basketball recruiting ended (besides Thor). I'm still recovering from that 💔 heartbreak 😭. So I've turned to crutin for the sport I care less about where the pain won't be as much!!! Lol. O and I ain't got a clue!!? Hahaha So that's why I reserved a table for 2 at the local SIZZLER for your Intel and sources in to good ol pigskin crutin. ORDER UP!!! Woooooo!!!!!!! LFG!!!!!

I so rarely get to actually contribute here, haha. @ellitor has been keeping tabs on Banks for awhile now. Side note: Surely it's already been talked about, but it says a lot about Davis that we land his commitment and suddenly we're a serious contender for his entire got danged high school team.

They get credit for taking the most marketable human being on the planet and saying "PUT HIS FACE ON EVERYTHING". And then he went to Cleveland and delivered a title. They hitched their wagon to the right horse, no doubt. I bet Jaeden Roberts is a BronBron fan. But I hope he's more of a Jordan fan. And Charles Oakley and Bill Laimbeer.
