    Laloulu for these reasons...
    - At 6'2", 329 pounds, he's a tree trunk under center with his rare frame density, mass, and natural leverage, and he carries elite strength and hand power at contact.
    - He has an ideal power profile, and he can operate on zone looks as well with his core strength on the move.
    - He's a true commander of the front with elite awareness, stunt vision, and football IQ

    For me he captures everything I'm looking for in a center and being a 3-year starter gives him the experience to step in and compete as a rookie. As a two-time former commander in the military, that word has special meaning to me because I tried to encourage everyone to "command" their own position/role. Iapani has the kind of knuckle dragger size and exceptional traits to be an anchor for the next 10 years.

    I'm tired of dudes getting push in the middle of our pocket and want some big nasties in there.

    Both of the prospects that you mentioned need to be studied closely. I believe our first two picks should be on the OL, which is by far our weakest position group.
