Brione Ramsey-Brooks, TCU Freshman OL that is 6'5" 455!!! I feel receiving a pancake block from him might be a career ender.

When were the days for 450 pounders? I missed that era of football.
It wasn't all that long ago when Refrigerator Perry burst onto the scene as a rookie in 1985 and amazed everyone with his size. He tipped the scales at a whopping 308 lbs (He also stole Walter Payton's only chance at a Super Bowl TD, but I'll save my rant on that for later.)
It wasn't but 10 or so years later when Jackie Wayne's offensive line at State averaged over 300 lbs. It's kind of amazing how quickly the population could have such a collective growth spurt like that.
An average 260# DE will run past him before he can get up out of a stance, if he can get down in a stance even
Don't remember his weight but do remember he threw the shot put and was pretty dang good at that. I think he was from around Natchez
Wisner was a beast strength-wise. Like world class power lifting champion type strength. But I wouldn't think he weighed anything close to 400. I used to know him in school a little, and in my memory he was roughly the same size as other linemen we had. Maybe a little wider. I don't think he was 70 or 80 lbs bigger than any of them. But strong as an ox and mean as hell. I say that in a good, football way. He was a fun guy to hang out with.
Found something from back in the day.
