They might as well, it’s not like he can throw a stiff arm to stop them with them little bitty arse arms

LOL if anyone still puts stock in these silly measurements and underwear Olympics over actual production on tape they shouldn’t be scouts.



I think you can take some stock in it. There will always be an exception to the rule.

Aaron Donald is 6'1'' 280 lbs. He is far from "ideal" size but was the best DT in the NFL for a decade.

Arm length must be important since it is measured, but I don't think it should knock a guy down multiple rounds.

I think most normies don't understand b/c it was never a huge focus in the regular media like 40s and bench, so you kind of have to equate it to one of those.

If you're a WR running a 4.85, you're probably not going top 10. And there have been WRs who have had productive careers running that low, so it's not really comparable. His arms are like a 5.00 or 5.10 40 for a WR. It's such an outlier it's not really something you can find examples of succeeding.

He was also one of the freakiest freaks ever and would have easily been 300 if he wasn't absolutely ripped with abs and had normal body fat % for a DL
