    At 464 lbs he ran a 5.9 forty, did 36 reps on the bench press and had a vertical of 25 inches. It's a wonder he didn't cause an earthquake when landed from his vertical.

    Big Snack part Deux. But Bigger! Late round pick possibly undrafted but stock went up at the Pro Day. How the hell are you going to move him? Can you imagine him landing on someone?

    Steelers drafted a NT last year. Logan Lee just hasn't played yet.

    Lee was 6’5” 281 at the combine last year. He would need a lot more sand in his pants to hold up as a NT. I think Adams is still the closest player on our roster to a true nose tackle.

    Putting on good weight is the goal. He also had 25 on the bench and 7.16 3cone.

    Nolen in the first as cam’s future replacement and Caldwell in the 4th as our NT for the foreseeable future is my wish

    I’m not seeing a frame for adding 40 lbs of good weight. I have hopes for him to contribute, but as a 3-4 DE and maybe dropping inside for pass rush situations.

    Yeah, at 6’5” 280’s he probably needs to gain about that much to have the anchor weight for the nose. A nose generally needs to control two gaps and be hard to move off his spot.

    We don't play a traditional 3-4 defensive front. Any NT/DT we use is typically going to be a 3T to 0T. We also use guys 6'3" and taller. If Lee bulks up to 300LBs with good weight he'll be where he needs to be.

    When Lee starts playing the base defense nose for us effectively, you be sure to point it out to me.

    I doubt I will even think about this conversation come first kickoff. But I will try I guess.
