[GloryDaysRBack]

Harris 5-10 191
Prince 6 206

[Hoofbite]

What's wow?

Wasn't he supposed to have a little more height?

[Trace1015]

hE was supposed to be down to 207

[GloryDaysRBack]

What's wow?

a lot of people were saying he wasnt a legit 220...i guess he is...

many also expected him to lose weight..

[CanuckCowboysFan]

So Prince is 6 feet. That'll shut alot of people up.

[realtick]

I can't seem to find the official heights and weights for the DBs, but someone should have taken my bet regarding Prince Amakumara's height. I would have wagered a good amount of money that kid wasn't anywhere close to 6-foot.

I swear to God I woulda swore the same. They kept talking about this big corner and I kept seeing a compact looking 5-10 guy. I guess it's a good think when you're than tall but look like you're shorter due to a lower center of gravity

[CanuckCowboysFan]

I have to say though I am surprised Prince and Peterson are the same height. Peterson looks much taller.

I have no problems admitting if I was wrong, but I hardly think those heights listed on that walterfootball.com website are official.

All of the players are listed at simple-numbered heights: ex 6', 6'1", 6'2", 6'3", et cetera.

They have Ahmad Black at 5'10" even, when he measured in at 5'9.3" at the Senior Bowl, which is to say he's 5'9 and 3/8s.

Walter football updates everything as they come in on TV...those numbers are legit..now you are right..they arent exact...but they are damn close..if someone checks in at 5 10 and 6/8s they make it 5'11...but their numbers are up to the minute

I'm a stickler for specifics, so exact numbers are what I gravitate towards. The example I gave with Ahmad Black is a good example; 5'9 3/8" is not even halfway to 5'10", so that's a bit of a difference in my mind. In effect, Black is closer to 5'9" than he is 5'10".

Now is that little bit of height going to make a huge difference on the field? Probably not. But I just want the true numbers as they are, not rounded up.

I can understand this..no doubt..me? not so much of a stickler on specifics..

bottom line is, if Prince is listed at 6 foot..at a bare minimum hes a small 5-11, which is still taller than you expected lol...not that it matters to me

Lol, okay.

I said he wouldn't measure 6' or anywhere near the 6'1" some sites listed him as recently.

If he's under those claimed heights I will have been proven correct. If he's 5'11 7/8" I'll even concede I'm wrong, but if he's on the shorter side of 5'11" I sure the heck won't.

BTW, I've searched the Web up and down and haven't found any info on the DBs heights and weights. I hardly think walterfootball.com has exclusive rights to this information. I'm certain that info is unofficial at this point.

If hes listed at 6 foot by walter..my guess is that he is on the higher end of 5-11..i guess you do have to wait for the official numbers to come in..doesnt matter to me, I wasnt a part of this debate and I am not trying to get into it now..just trying to help...

Hey just the other day you were suggesting i was arbitrarily making up heights ;)

bottom line for me is unless we get lucky and PP falls to us or we trade up to get him then i don't want a CB in r1 period even in a trade down which if we do we better get a O-lineman.

Um, no. Reread the thread johnnyd, I never claimed you were arbitrarily making up hieghts. I clearly said the college sports info departments make up generous made-up heights and weights, which you agreed with.

I even gave you a few examples in which the descrepancies in heights/weights compared to the official ones can't be argued with.

Like I said, once the official heights are listed and if I'm wrong, I'll gladly hand out apologies.

relax realtick , i dont want a apology who cares? and i did re-read it the examples were the last thing you gave but the 2 or 3 posts before that you were outright suggesting that i was making **** up. Since your obvioulsey still taking things way to seriousley just ignore me and i will gladly do the same with you.

[casmith07]

Relax. He's 219 and runs like he's 185.

[ThreeSportStar80]

Wow Jimmy Smith is a legit 6'2, and 211 lbs... :eek: I like him more and more.

[burmafrd]

Peterson claimed he would be at around 210 or less at the combine. I guess he cannot push away from the table...

[speedkilz88]

Wow Jimmy Smith is a legit 6'2, and 211 lbs... :eek: I like him more and more.He's the guy that is probably going to have trouble because of his stiff hips.

[jnday]

You know a DB better than most , so I`ll take your word for it.

[speedkilz88]

What's scary is that's a cb the size of Darren Woodson coming out in 1992.

[Hostile]

I am so giddy about watching tomorrow's workouts. I may have an accident.

whats scarier is that he is not a CB at all ;)
