Jovan Belcher, a gem found in the rough ?
http://www.rotoworld.com/teams/nfl/kc/?r=1
ESPN.com's Bill Williamson and Scouts Inc.'s Matt Williamson believe the Chiefs have found a "gem" in ILB Jovan Belcher. Belcher was primarily a special teamer as an undrafted rookie in 2009. He graduated to full-time starter in 2010, racking up 84 tackles. "He's a heavier guy who is a good banger in the 3-4 defense," Matt Williamson said. "He seems like a hard-nosed guy who has made the best of opportunity." Expect Belcher to remain in the same role next season. |

The reason I actually believe Guardian on this is that there's no way he takes on Fullbacks the way he did if he's only 228. There's no reason to believe that his listed weight is his actual playing weight. He's strong at the point of attack. He's got areas of his game to work on, but size/strength haven't appeared to be one of them. |

So TheGuardian is to Belcher like KCJohnny is to Gunther.

Weight doesn't mean jack shit when you're taking on fullbacks if you get leverage.

And he's not talking about a 30 lb. weight change. He's talking about a 12 lb. weight loss. Which seems reasonable to me. He's saying that losing 10 lbs isn't a big deal if everyone else is losing 10 lbs. too. And I'd have to agree because, again, people here are suggesting that his true playing weight is 20 lbs. lighter than it needs to be. If that were the case, he'd be getting mauled at the point of attack. He's not. He's clearly big enough to play ILB meaning that his weight is probably around the range Guardian is suggesting. |

The only way that would work is if you have to work your ass off to put on weight and I don't see that making a 30lb difference anyway. Maybe 10. |

That's only partially right. Leverage also comes from being able to get under somebody's pads.
