Is it just me or is this guys neck massive?

It wouldn't hurt to bring him to training camp. you line him up at tackle and have him take on offensive linemen. He is obviously strong and he probably posses more athleticism than your average linemen. I really wouldn't be surprised if he makes the team.

I think he could have the heart to play but I dont know if he will have the talent. I will be rooting for him and hope he makes it.

Lesnar signed for a rookie minimum salary ($238K) and no signing bonus so his cost to the Vikings is no more than any other undrafted free agent.

He reportedly made over $2M in his 2 year stint as a pro rassler so he gave that up to try football at a 90% salary cut. Sounds to me like he might be motivated to learn to play football. Now, does he have the talent... ???

The guy sure is determined to make it.

Still, he's a huge project.
