As far as weight goes, I can defininitely see the argument for wanting bigger guys in the middle. There are a lot of 300lb. plus DT's in this league. A 288lb lineman taking on increasingly bigger DT's is not a pretty sight. Especially when trying to get a "PUSH" up the middle. Since DE's are not as "weighty" it might not be as important for an OT.
