...pounds. He's 6'5" 335. As a LT he needs to weigh between 310 and 320 at that height. 335 is fine for a guard or a RT, but it's keeping him from moving well enough to play against the elite DEs in the league.

I thought he did fine.

He did mediocre against a poor opposing DE. Wait till the Dwight Freeneys of the world show up.

I agree, he will have trouble with speed rushers. I still think long term he will be a great OL for us, but I think he ends up at RT or RG if we get a better LT. He is an improvement though, no doubt
