As long as were signingplayers to camera contracts, throw Kearse in there too. Dude is consistently hilarious.thebanjodude":1uzorn8a said:I hope the Seahawks sign Mike Rob and John Moffit to lifelong contracts.

I seriously wouldn't underestimate one's physical prowess with how they look. Most OL look like Moffitt, even Walter Jones.
And yes, it's another sport, but ask Roy "Big Country" Nelson what he thinks about looking the part.

This is a great example. Also, thanks for the clip. I forgot all about Roy Nelson. I watched him when he was on The Ultimate Fighter. Dude is one tough SOB. He reminds me of Tank Abbott, without the D-bag factor that Tank had and Big Country is definitely twice the fighter Tank Abbott every was. Tank was just a bar room brawler that was screwed if he didn't knock his opponent out in the first round.
I apologize for veering off-topic. Just had to admire a great example for physical prowess based on appearance. Roy Nelson is an amazing example. A dude you would be extremely sorry you had ever crossed paths with. Especially after you wake up in the hospital and remember that you picked a fight with "some chubby dude" at the bar the night before. Thinking you could take him. Even if you're a tough guy, Roy is the type that could end your life with his bare hands, with relative ease and in short fashion. But he looks like 'that fat guy that everybody loves and wouldn't harm a fly'..

Even guy's like Brock Lesnar, who destroyed the UFC ranks at one point, couldn't cut it when he tried out for the Vikings.
Albeit, a lot of ex-college players have found success transferring into the wrestling ranks.
But who actually believes that any wrestler/fighter could cut it in the NFL. Its a hard process, I'm not saying NFL players can beat up UFC fighter as we saw Hamlin get messed up by a common street thug but in the NFL, you have to be a different type of athlete.
Moffitt's problem is that at Wisconsin, he was a big dude surrounded by other big dudes who made up one of the biggest lines in the country. He could be dominant without really trying against collegiate players.
Now in the NFL, the dude doesn't look the part, he doesn't look strong, he doesn't look athletic, he's been surviving on technique. I understand he got hurt in his rookie season but the Seahawks actually were better without him. I understand he was coming back from a knee injury in 2012, but the guy lost snaps to a ROOKIE who was a DT in college.
Moffit is 26 years, already has serious knee issues, and his athleticism and strength is weak sauce, at his combine weighing 319, he ran 5.51 40 w/ 23 bench reps at 24 years old.
In comparison, Michael Bowie as an OT for instance ran a 5.32 40 at 332 pounds. Although he had 19 bench reps but he is also only 21 years old. Give him 3 years to improve and I'm sure Bowie, at 10-12 pounds less, could get to around 5.00- 5.10 with 28+ reps and match some of the other workout numbers (broad, vert, 20-yard, 3 cone) that made Moffitt a 3rd Round pick.
