[QUOTE="bobongo, post: 439233, member: 3893"] I was struck by the size of our defensive backs. The average weight of the 8 db's on the depth chart is[B] 199[/B] lbs. I looked it up, and found that the average FBS db weighs in at 189. Other FBS averages are... LB - 223 (we average [B]220[/B], including the ILB, STGR and JACK) DL - 270 (our average is [B]275[/B]) OL - 297 (our average is [B]286[/B]) WR - 190 (our average is[B] 201[/B]) QB - 207 (our average is [B]198[/B]) RB - 202 (our average is [B]192)[/B] These numbers are from the "Next College Student Athlete" website and were supposedly compiled from the last 5 years of rosters. I know they're just statistics, but kind of interesting. Overall, we're just about average. Heavier at DB, DL (!), and WR, and lighter at OL, QB, and RB. About average at LB. So, the defense is a bit heavier than average, and the offense is on the light side, overall. FWIW. [/QUOTE]
