I'm I the only one that noticed that Taylor Jacobs beefed up? He has definitely been working out!

Jacobs has definitely been hitting the weights pretty hard. At the first minicamp, a lot of the reporters noticed that, and he said he wanted to make his body more sturdy and injury-resistant, and enable himself to play more physically.

On the Redskins' official roster, he's listed at 198, but it looks to me like he's added at least 10 lbs of muscle to his frame since last year. During minicamps, I kept mistaking him for Coles, because Coles has a very similar beefy build, and Jacobs was moving like him, too.

Sorry-- hate to keep building up Jacobs like that, but the kid has looked damn good so far. I'll try to keep a lid on my enthusiasm until the real hitting starts.
