Sum up the 2017 Star Tribune Metro Preseason Dream Team with one word: Big. As in offensive linemen averaging 6-5 and 293 pounds. At receiver, St. Croix Lutheran's Garett Maag and Buffalo's Treyton Welch are 6-3 or taller. Every member of the defensive backfield tops 6 feet. In fact, only one member of the defense stands below that threshold.
