It's obvious that your 300lb DT is wider than your 190lb WR, and takes up a lot more space. This should be reflected in the sim. Then, having a huge defensive front with big, large players, would "plug" a little more of the gaps, and in turn, the OL would also take up more space, making the area between the tackles a little more "packed" and a little tougher to just fly around through. This would make LBs flying in for TFLs a little tougher, as well as make runners possibly have to alter course or slow down a LOT more going through a packed line.
This would be great to see, especially with the larger sizes archetypes will be bringing into play.
