I mean even Grant Wistrom was bigger than that. And now I'm reading that a perennial journeyman like James Hall may beat him out for the starting position? Please say it ain't so.

WHAT SAY YE?
I was about 20 feet from Long at the Ram's/Titan's game, and maybe he lost mass in training camp, or what not, but he cannot hold Leonard Little's jock when it comes to muscle mass. Maybe Little has bulked up, but Long just doesn't have the typical DE type build. I think he will be very ineffective against the run at first ...

Look, here is my opinion on Long. He does not at this point excite me at all as a player. Is he a good guy? Yes. Does he have potential? Yes. Is he a better player than James Hall at this point? No. He is currently a downgrade at the position. Until he proves otherwise, I don't see alot of excitement ....
