Just saw this kid playing in the Celebration Bowl for Alcorn State... thought it was a typo so had to check... he looked humungous on the field...
Isaac Sampson listed at
6'5"
390!!!
Isn't Shawn supposed to be a 1st round pick this upcoming draft? Dude is jacked for a football player, I'm impressed. I've been hearing that he has a ton of potential and raw talent. Is he a defensive end?

He might slip to the 2nd round. His stock might have fallen a touch, however, if he kills it at the combine (which he probably will), 1st round it is
If clowney or Mario Williams proved anything it's that you can still be the top pic in a draft as a d end after a down year if you kill it at the combine.
Not that Oakland will be a top pic but I think he'll go in the low 29s. Especially with how it isn't a heavy offensive year for the draft

Holy shit that's awesome brotha!! You were there in some good yearsreminds me of my football days at UM. i was killing myself trying to keep up with these genetic freacks!!! my roomate was Edgerrin James, and i witness what a true freak of nature is. My life was sleeping and training, and ice bags, ntn else. He was out partying and fucking girls all night, barely no sleep, i would see him at 430am before our 5am workout in the kitchen eating a whole box of cheerios!!!!

I agree and do think he will go on the 20s. People love to talk about his weaknesses lately it seems though
All teens these days are a lot bigger than we were back in the 80s. At the high school in my town it is not uncommon to see guys 6 foot 3 inches tall or taller. The average guy now seems to be about 6 foot tall which is what I am and a lot of the young guys now tower over me. The high school had a player that was 6 foot 5inches and weighed about 340 lbs, big boy. The kid's hands and head looked like a giants compared to mine. We had not one guy in school near that size when I was in school.
That's awesome man. Saw edgerrin James in person when he was with the cardinals. So jacked and Totally believe those stories.
Biggest freak I played with was a kid named Taylor mays. Played (free agent last I checked but was on the 49ers and bengals) free safety and was 6'4" and 240lbs. Ran a legit 4.4 at 225 in high school and a hand timed 4.28 at usc. Not a great safety on the field but one of the most athletic guys you'll ever see.
Remember in high school he'd always be late to workouts and rarely do anything. One day we were maxing out on squats and one of our lineman did 445lbs. He rolls up wearing flip flops and eating some donuts. Walks up to the bar and does it for 4 reps with no warmup. Racks it and goes back to finishing his donut. Just crazy to see people like that

Oh yea I've seen that too. All they talk about is his lack of sacks (still have the all time Baylor record) but the Baylor scheme requires the d tackles and ends to try to take on as many of the blockers to leave lanes for the backers to clean up.
They're saying similar things about Joey Bosa too who could possibly be the top pick this year. But he was double and triple teams almost the entire year, so of course his stats aren't gonna be crazy.
Off topic but when I was college age (late 80's) I could barely afford a value meal and gas for my car. These kids now have nice rides and thousands of dollars in inkwork on their bodies. WTF?
Star college athletes get kickbacks under the table so to speak from boosters.
