ChimpGrip Posted March 8, 2019 Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 I started a thread similar to this last year, but that was about the defensive line. How would an OL made up of elite strongmen (with 30 minutes of coaching) do against the best HS defensive lines in the country? LT: Hafþór Björnsson - 6'9" 437 LG: Eddie Hall - 6'3" 435 Center: Zydrunas Savickas - 6'3" 385 RG: Kirill Sarychev - 6'6" 396 RT: Brian Shaw - 6'8" 450 Edit: And for more fun, RB1 - Larry Wheels - 6'1" 275 RB2 - Marius Pudzianowski - 6'1" 315 TE - Martins Licis - 6'3" 340 FB - Dimitar Savatinov - 5'10" 330 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

181pl Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Shaw was a basketball player as a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
181pl Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 Eddie Hall was a national level swimmer in the UK when he was a teen. These guys are athletes. I agree that at this point they are too large, but they have it in them to lose 50 and still dominate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I AM IRONMAN Posted March 9, 2019 Report Share Posted March 9, 2019 once they got their hands on the defensive lineman it would be all over. Usually all agree that speed wins but not in this case when the strength is just so overwhelming plus some posters here sit that these guys were former athletes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
