[QUOTE="Techster, post: 69065, member: 360"] Absolutely agree that DTs come in all different sizes...just like OLs do. Height isn't everything, but to use guys that are exceptions for their positions to make a case is pretty silly. Plus, those guys are taller than the player we're talking about ...Shawn Green. One to two inches may not seem like a lot, but for a person's body to function the right way when carrying weight, it does mean a lot. It's a fact that the bigger your frame is, the more healthy weight you can carry. A player that's 6' carrying 280 lbs has more stress on their system an joints than a guy that's 6'3 280 lbs. That's just a medical fact. Now, you put that kind of stress on a smaller frame meant to carry less weight in an athletic environment where you're playing against larger guys...and well it's not a good thing on anyone's body much less someone who's already undersized.
