wtf? Ogunjobi lookin like an OLB'er....

I agree with Dutch. That was 40 years ago. Your current average weight of interior DL is around 305 pounds.
Reason why Jim Brown was so impressive- he was running over defensive linemen that didn't weigh much more than he did.

That’s not the reason. He would be running over and around those 300 pounders today. He was bigger faster stronger than any running back playing today’s game

then you miss the interesting point. of COURSE the size of players is different/larger on the lines. Bob Golic was drafted as a lb by the Patriots, who ended up cutting him. The Browns signed him and moved him to NT. They were both wrestlers - very athletic and tough/durable.
Bob Golic
Robert Perry Golic
Position: NT-DT-LB-DE
6-2, 264lb (188cm, 119kg)
Born: October 26, 1957 (Age: 61-277d) in Cleveland, OH
The FREAKING INTERESTING POINT is,
Ogunjobi :
also athletic:
https://cci.uncc.edu/news/2019-02-18/alumni-spotlight-larry-ogunjobi
"At 6’3” and more than 300lbs, with unusual quickness for a big man, Ogunjobi almost immediately established himself as a force on the football field "
Therefore - Ogunjobi is bigger, but also very athletic - quick feet and balance. He got a lot lighter, reformed his body shape, and is predicted.
"Ogunjobi could be a breakout star for the Browns on the defensive line — at least that’s a sentiment his teammate, All-Pro and defensive line buddy Myles Garrett believes."
*****************************************************
The point is NOT that the players in Golic's and Sherk's day were smaller, but that with the increase in average size of players, Ogunjobi is very, very quick, and is now far more powerful with all his weight room work....
Larry Ogunjobi voted most present in the weight room - 247Sports
Jul 1, 2019 - When several players were asked to vote for the player that spends the most time in the weight room, defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi received ...he may very well fulfill Myles Garrett's prediction. And all three were/are very intense players, very, very smart. Sherk and Golic were smart players. Ogunjobi is a smart player.
THAT IS WHAT IS INTERESTING.
I didn't think I had to explain it....

I can only imagine the shenanigans that is calfox on the Politics board, based on that "explanation".

Nostalgia Gipper. Regarding Jim Brown. You watch those highlights, and tackling technique back then was atrocious compared to today.
No he's not, and wouldn't be. Freak of nature in his era, as Jim Thorpe was a few decades earlier. Nick Chubb is 5 pounds difference. Bo Jackson was essentially the same player, and we know how that turned out. Bo supposedly ran a 4.2, and I seriously doubt Brown was any faster. Jim wouldn't be running over 300 pound DL either. There were maybe 3 (if that) in the entire NFL the years Brown played. He might be able to run around them, but he'd be running into linebackers that were every bit as big, or bigger than he was- and damn near as fast. Remember Jim's battles with Same Huff? Funny- one of the few LBs of the early 60s who was the same size as Brown.

If Henry runs through us like butter in game one I'm blaming you for putting the jinx on us.??

Jim Brown would still be the best running back in the game if he played today based on his size speed and strength period.

Not saying JB wouldn't. My point being Brown was a man among boys in his era. Today, he's just another man among other men. He's not running over guys like JJ Watt or Aaron Donald.

not sure how a thread about jobi seemingly getting under DT weight is pressing the "gayzone".....but clevfan is not one to pass up an opportunity when its presented.
So, as anyone who's played in the trenches can attest....u gotta have ass if ur gonna survive down there. Can we get Tiamat to surrepetitiously take pictures of jobi's backside for a definitive conclusion on whether he's lost too much weight? We're def creeping toward the deep end here but its for the "research".
When it comes to OL and DL....an old wiseman, circa 1992. said it best...

He would as much as anyone today would

Again Gipper- regarding JB. Don't live off of nostalgia. You don't see any running backs giving guys piggy back rides for 10 yards into the end zone anymore. Do you?
Brown would actually have had to work out (from reports I've seen, very little) , but the overall improvement in his condition wouldn't come close to the overall improvement in conditioning, technique, (and size) of the opposition.
Adrian Peterson good? Sure. HOF good? Ditto.

Anyone who can't see JB in these 4 successive runs starting at 1:51 mark is not paying attention to what he's been doing most recently. We must treat him as if he is that good when he comes to town game one or we will lose. Just sayin'! And want to see an 11 yd. run thru traffic down to the 2 with a TD next? Then go to the 3:34 mark. Scary how good he is getting.
