Denver Broncos' linebacker and Super Bowl MVP Von Miller said, "I feel like Trent Brown has a very bright future in the National Football League. He's 6-foot-8. He knows how to use his arms, knows how to use his wingspan and he has length. So I feel like he's young and people haven’t really seen him, but I feel like he’s one of the better tackles in the National Football League."[10][11][12] On August 16, 2017, Miller made a similar remark about Brown to the San Francisco Chronicle after the Broncos and 49ers had a joint practice, stating,

"He's the best right tackle in the National Football League! And he may even be a top-five tackle, period, in the National Football League. There’s not another tackle who’s that tall, that big and can move the way he moves.”

Brown started all 16 regular season games for the 49ers in 2016.

After playing right tackle during his tenure with the 49ers, Brown became the Patriots starting left tackle in 2018, starting all 16 games. With Brown, the Patriots reached and went on to win Super Bowl LIII.

In his first 11 games with the Raiders, Brown allowed only one sack in 326 pass-blocking snaps. On December 17, 2019, Brown was named a Pro Bowl selection for the first time of his career.

Bottom line, bigger=harder to get around and tougher to set the edge against. Be nice to be able to run off-tackle consistently and have enough beef on the edge to keep the TJ Watt's of the world off our 500 million dollar QB.

Just a thought.

I think the key there is being able to move. at 6'8" with long arms, yeah, you can carry 330 well. I think it's the length and the strength more than the actual scale weight at a certain point.
