All of which makes Spencer the odd man out. Shame!

hell with 25 pounds then, try 50. 50 in 2 years (or 3
) isn't out of the realm of possibility. i know certain frames grow into certain weight ranges but i think the closer he gets to 300 the better it will suit him on multiple fronts.
quick ZBS question- position-wise, do tackles need to be the ones who can book it? or is it guards? or centers? or all, or sides, or combo? i assume that centers don't really need quite the mobility that the rest of the line needs due to placement in the line and the farther from center the more mobility is necessary...is that right or am i off?
if kubiak is willing to give spencer another year then so am i. he never gave spencer a prediction any less gleaming than "will be a tackle in this league for many years" and if he still sees that, even if he has to come back as a guard or center or goalline fullback
then it will be worth it. but i'm not the one signing his check so.....
