I know from when I played in high school I would spend the entire off season bulking up and gaining as much possible weight as I could, only to lose almost all of it in the month of August.

Although I agree that Shannon Sharpe was the best TE, he was not the best blocking TE. Tony is simply taking the time that he has in the off season to get to the optimum playing weight. That's a combination of speed, and strength. It's simply not realistic to be 235 lbs, and still be a dominant run blocker. If he can find the happy medium between 235 and 265, he'll be an even more dominant pass threat, while adding more strength to his resume to become a more complete TE. He's already said as much, now let's see if he delivers. Hey arm chair quarterbacks, give it some time before you diagnose.

From what I have read Tony still has some work ahead of him, but it was his decision to bulk up and he knows the kind of work that needs to be done in order for him to be as athletic as he was in the past.

Tony was an amazing receiving threat last year. This will nullify his speed and quick cuts to get open. Very disappointing to read this. Basically, he's coming in to training camp plump and overweight. Way too much weight, too fast. Tony was an amazing receiving threat last year. This will nullify his speed and quick cuts to get open.

Extra weight takes its tol on your knees too, I know that from experieince. Shannon Sharpe was an every down TE, probably the best ever, and he weighed about 235 at most, so follow his path Tony, not this one of turning yourself into just another slow fat guy.

In most cases, the player actually slims back down the next off-season. We are going to need an effective Tony Scheffler this season and I hope he knows exactly what he is doing....
