Ryan Clark was not 205 when he got into the league.

And again, im not arguing for or against. I just dont understand why people are so quick to think he wont be good. For fricks sake, Danny Woodhead is on a roster.

They claim he weighs 180, I've see the pics he's been posting and he doesn't look 180 at all...

I don't see why everyone thinks he will suck because he has been really good up to this point
Mainly his size, the height isn't an issue but how many 180 pound safeties are there in the NFL? Bob Sanders may be best comparison height wise but even he was over 200 (even his college bio has him at 202). Can TM put on the 20-25 pounds and keep his quickness?

He is digging a bigger hole for himself everytime he opens his mouth. TM7 A piece of advice. SHUT YOUR TRAP and just play football.

Even his LSU bio has him a 192, which is still more than 180. Which would still make him look a good deal bigger than TM at that point in his career as well

I did think a lot of him. I enjoyed watching him play.

They also claim he is 5'9" and I am 5'8" and maybe a bit taller than he is

And it's well known the LSU would always give these guys a bump on their bio. Hell the listed Kevin Faulk as 5'10" for ever. That dude was never 5'10".

I could see him moving to safety before I could see him staying at corner in the NFL. If he stayed at corner it wouldn't be as a #1 or #2

Yup, so what kinda bump is TM then? if he is listed on the small side and we both agree LSU bumps them up....

AS I said earlier I think he can be a decent player in the league in the right system. A system that would give him freedom

Who is the smallest CB in the league?


I believe that title belongs to Joselio Hanson who stands 5'9

Well if TM is listed at 5'8" 180lbs would that make him the smallest?

Just about every team has a CB 5'10" or shorter. No big deal

Jim Leonhard is listed at 5'8" 185 so he could possibly be a good comparison for TM

Antoine Winfield is 5'9" 180 so that would be another small player


Winfield is a pro bowl player while Leonhard is just a good player not great
