What is a11 football?

A-11 Football is an offensive system used in some levels American football in which a team's offensive players are deemed eligible to catch a forward pass - as determined by the formation they're aligned in, and not according to their jersey number and formation - as is the case in basic American football. A-11 Football allows all of the team's offensive players to be interchangeable in their sets because they are not restricted by jersey numbers, like they are in basic football. A-11 Football allows for 16,632 possible post-snap scenarios of which player can receive the snap and advance with the football because any player can align in any spot within any formation - thereby making A-11 players interchangeable. In basic American football using a five fixed offensive linemen set, there are only 36 possibilities of which player can receive the snap and advance with the ball because the offensive linemen are not interchangeable within the formation with other offensive players - the jersey-numbering requirement does not allow it.

How heavy are the football players on the offensive line?

Depending on the level you're asking about, the weight of offensive linemen can vary quite a bit. At highschool, a team with an average offensive line weight of 260 or 270 is considered enormous. That being said, highschool linemen can compete at weight as low as 180 and 200 to as high as 380. In D-1 college football, offensive linemen frequently weigh 300 pounds. 270 and 280 pounds are also somewhat common, but are generally considered a bit undersized whereas linemen weighing over 350 are pretty rare. In the NFL, an undersized lineman can be 6-3, 280 pounds. At the highest level of competition, nearly all offensive linemen weigh over 300 and stand near or above 6-5, Offensive linemen weighing over 350 pounds are becoming a common sight in the NFL.
