I guess it would be fun but the two obstacles I see right from the gate are:

1. Teaching someone to block like Willie Roaf sounds great in theory, but Willie Roaf spent years learning proper technique

2. The Sumo dude's sheer girth would provide a split second deterrent, but an NFL speed rusher off the edge would leave that dude holding his whatever the **** it's called that Sumo guys wear.
