projected weight gain... LB to DT

[bomber33bomber]

i got this LB in IHOF - MLB Casey Tilson

MLB Casey Tilson Player Details (http://www.fof-ihof.com/playercard.php?playerid=73799)

he's currently a 6'3'' 268 MLB. great run stopper. strong PRS. weak PRT.

I play 4-3 OVER and was thinking of turning him into a DT.

he would not be that good of a DE but a very good DT.

Does anyone know if i make him gain weight in TC, would he gain enough to be a DT? Is there a weight gain projection model some where?

What would be a minimum weight for an acceptable DT? 282?

Does weight really matter that much for the Dline?

Okay, why is that? DE being more a PRT than PRS position or what are you thoughts?

[Squirrel]

Not a data driven view but FWIW I had 280 in mind

[QuikSand]

I reckon he's a 4-3 DE

Seems like a solid LDE, I always feel like you can win more games if you stop a team from running over 100 yards. This guy seems like he can help with that.

Make sure his endurance and play diagnosis is decent.

5% is the max weight gain roughly so no he can't be a DT

I would do the weight increase and see where he ends up and probably play him at DT anyway. In general, I don't see a problem with playing slightly undersized players at DL in FOF.
