You Can't Teach Heart, Hustle, and Balls. Willie Lampkin Leads The League In All of Them

5'11", 290 lbs. Willie Lampkin is a certified fire hydrant. The average size for an interior lineman is going to be somewhere around 6'3" - 6'4", and a little over 300 lbs. So Willie Lampkin is giving up a massive size advantage every time that ball is snapped. He's like bringing a bowling ball to a gun fight. 

But as the age old saying goes--Willie Lampkin don't give a fuck. 

He might not have size, but this man has the heart and balls of an ancient warrior. He doesn't care who he's lined against. From the moment that ball is snapped to the moment that whistle blows, the only thing on his mind is domination. 

Philly fans obviously have a soft spot in our hearts for the center position. Cam Jurgens just hasn't commanded the love and adoration of the fanbase yet. Unfortunately he just can't seem to stay healthy, and he also just doesn't seem very good when he's out there. But Willie Lampkin? An undersized demon who annihilates dudes who look like they're twice his size? That's a man who has the makings of a legend in Philadelphia. He'll have a major podcast and a beer brand in no time. 

Willie Lampkin, Death Valley.
