Great To Hear Big Bane Gets It

Courtesy Seahawks Insider.

Brandon Mebane interview with Dave Mahler.

The details aren't real important, knowing that Brandon Mebane is spending his offseason becoming a better football player is.

Wait, "Seahawks' Squawk Box"? That's an embarrassingly dumb name. And I know embarrassingly dumb names.

Go Go ESPN
A search for Brandon Mebane only comes up with his Cal stats.  Anyways...

About Mebane losing weight.  I know that Tampa 2 style defenses are predicated on quick, penetrating, disruptive lineman, but is that what we want Mebane doing?  I'm not very familiar with Mebane, but I had him as more of a big body, immovable object, take up blockers kinda guy.  Quicker is nice, but will it hurt him elsewhere?  Either way I love hearing how hard he's working.

There's nothing favorable about fat.
He said he wanted to be 310, he played at 314 last season. The important thing is that he'll be nearly the same weight but stronger.

Fat doesn't move the line much
If he loses fat and gains quickness, so long as he doesn't lose power (which is in part a function of speed), it's all to the good.

He sure does get it.
He sounds like a guy who wants to be one of the best at his position, and after last season he looks to be headed that way.

He seems like a very fit and athletic 300+.

Also good to hear that he puts in work with the coaches in the film room.

I wonder if Board and Rollins are very very good coaches or if they are just given a lot to work with.

Footballer?
Didn't know Big Bane dabbed into soccer as well.

Love Mebane
Such a great pick. Love value in the draft like that, such a hallmark of great franchises.

Drafting well is what wins super bowls.
