Have class with Vickers. Very well put together guy for sure, however I'm not seeing 270. Probably 255-260 range. I think he ends up at DE.
Maybe holding a lot of weight in his lower body. I'm that way personally. I'm around 197-200lbs right now with a 27 inch waist. My lower body carries a lot of my weight and I bet Vickers is the same way. If the coaches think he's strong enough to play inside then his lower body is probably good size.
FWIW, Vickers registered 32 total tackles, 12 TFL, and 7.5 sacks in 12 games last year; I'm not sure if he played in Havelock's other 4 games or not. He apparently had only 3 tackles his junior year. Vickers was probably Havelock's 3rd-best DL last year behind ECU signee Malcolm Ashley (73 tackles, 23.5 TFL, 8.5 sacks) and Harry Caldwell (79 tackles, 13 TFL, 7 sacks).
Ive put on 20 pounds of muscle since the season ended, just by continuing to work in the weight room. Im working on getting just a bit stronger and becoming more flexible before college, Vickers said.

Has put on 28 lbs since he's been on campus per Butch. Redshirting this year
Nah I do alright overall. I stay pretty active. Lol but I'm hoping this kid continues to add "good" weight. Corey Miller added "bad" weight and I think it damn near killed his career.
