NFL Combine News: Rueben Bain's arms measured just 30 7/8 inches long

Rueben Bain Jr. is widely considered one of the top prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft. The star University of Miami edge rusher dominated throughout the 2025 season, including during the Canes' College Football Playoff run to the National Championship Game, where he picked up a sack against presumptive No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza.
But Bain is also somewhat of a polarizing prospect because he does not have the prototypical size for his position. In fact, he has an extremely atypical size, as we saw on Thursday morning when the NFL conducted measurements for edge rushers at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Bain's arms measured just 30 7/8 inches long, giving him some of the shortest arms for an edge rusher in recent Combine history.

If he's sitting there at #11 I would not be opposed to the Fins grabbing him.

Wouldn't hate it but would prefer Caleb Downs or Mansoor Delane.
QB early next year.

Cashius Howell with even shorter arms, and he was a beast this year.

They rated him outside the top 100 as a recruit for most of his senior season because of his size and never was a 5-star. Dude harassed right tackles for three years.
Sometimes you're just a football player with strength and a high motor. He also gives you the ability to terrorize from the interior.

That’s how you frame a topic. I would prefer how people with around his arm length performed in the NFL.

There are guys on that list that do not have careers worth mentioning
