350 is still enormous (which isn’t a bad thing), and I still see him going in the late first early second.
It would have been a red flag had he shown up at 400 lbs+ .

The thing is, he's not like Wilfork or Hampton who played around three bill in college and have had to dine at the all you can eat Oktoberfest buffet nightly to get to what they are today. Cody's frame is absolutely enormous, and he'll benefit from a strict weight training regime and the longer conditioning of the NFL season. (Depending upon the team and his desire.) He is pretty athletic for his size and does have excellent power and leverage on the field, at least at the collegiate level. Once everything is said and done, I can see him playing around 380 or so in three or four years and be utterly immovable. However, you've got to worry about guys like that. Their mass makes them susceptible to fatigue and they can burn themselves out quickly, e.g. Haynesworth, Rogers, Jenkins. There are very few guys like Ted Washington - ever.
