Am I the only that gets annoyed inaccurate measurements?

    1. No Way Cam Heyward is 295 lbs. Maybe when he got drafted but he is a least pushing 315 lbs. He is bigger than Benton who is listed at 309 lbs. and he is way bigger than Ogunjobi who is listed at 305 lbs.

    2. Tj Watt and Alex Highsmith are both in the 255 lb. range at least. They still have them in the 240’s.

    3. Pat Friermuth is listed at 6’ 5” but yet when he stands next too George Pickens they are nearly identical in height and Picks is listed at 6’ 3”.

    I get it the measurements are from the combine but even those don’t seem right and why don’t they update them?

    I would love to know what Peterson runs in the 40 now or if Calvin Austin is indeed faster than the 4.3 he posted at the combine. I guess that information maybe irrelevant or it could be detrimental if teams truly know a guy lost a lot of speed but I am sure they can see that with their own eyes.

    I'd rather just focus on SCOREBOARD. Everything else is irrelevant IMO.
    Albeit, in his day, Fast Willie Parker was indeed fast - and he proved it so many wonderful times. :cool:

    I was doomed for this post not to be taken seriously.

    The one that always got me was them saying Vince Wilfork has a bit over 300 lbs. Dude was huge. The Florida Gator DL Dez Watson reminds me of him and he is north of 400 lbs.

    I always liked how Casey Hampton and Jerome Bettis' weight never changed the entire time they were there.

    I hear you man. There's really no discernable difference between 5ft 11" and 6ft.. but they always insist on getting a tape measure.
