EZ-E Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Not a chance this kid is stronger than Suh. Quote Link to comment
JOEY Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Not a chance this kid is stronger than Suh. He is not stronger than Suh right now but he is stronger than Suh coming out out highschool. Quote Link to comment

EZ-E Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 You have to take all of that with the same grain of salt that you take forty times coming out of HS. Not a knock on the kid at all, just not ready to compare a HS kid to the best college football player of all time. Quote Link to comment

Seems way, way too low. For a guy to bench but 30 or so lbs more than their weight is well... not impressive. Obviously, Suh then later grew into his strength. To note, I'm not sure that football strength for a DT tracks well with bench press and squat --- it is a combination of footwork, balance, leverage, quickness, pad level in contact and inherent strength. Suh is a monster as far as DT football strength. May not have had then, or even now, weight-lifting strength --- but Suh's strength is matched by few --- even in the NFL. This kid (Yost) may be a lifting monster but that may, or may not, relate overly to FB strength. Quote Link to comment

(for what it's worth, it also sounds like the original poster is promoting him for personal reasons.) Quote Link to comment
BigWillie Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Seung Choi is stronger than Suh too, while in college. Choi = SUPERSTAR Quote Link to comment

Improving your veritical by over a foot! Talk about adding to his explosiveness off the ball. He could litterally shoot out of his stance. Suh at Combine: 6'4" (Height) 310 lbs (Weight) 32 (Bench reps) 4.44 (Shuttle) 35.5 inches (Vertical) Quote Link to comment
kchusker_chris Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 PS: Here is Chase Rome's stats...fairly comparable in size/strength, only quicker with perhaps a little more athletic ability (assumption based on vertical) Ht: 6'3" Wt: 290 lbs 40: 4.7 secs Bench Max: 400 Squat Max: 535 Vertical: 32 inches Quote Link to comment
