DMN Blog: Free agent report, training camp style

According to NFL.com,

Canty is 6'7", 304 lbs.
Olshansky is 6'6, 309 lbs.

How does one look at Olshansky and think that he is smaller and easier to move? They are practically identically sized.




Edit: And I just looked it up, although it is not necessarily dispositive of the issue:

At the combine, Igor ran a 4.9, jumped 33.5 inches from a standstill, and benched 225 lbs a COMBINE BEST 43 times.
I can't find Canty's numbers at the combine, but I'd be shocked if he is stronger than Igor (and strength goes into how easily you are moved; see, e.g., Larry Allen).

Canty is 6'7-2/8" and Olshanksy is 6'5-2/8", exactly 2" shorter.

Canty didn't workout at the Combine or his Pro Day. NFLDraftScout says that Igor did 41 reps of 225 at the Combine (43 reps at his Pro Day), which is still incredible, unless he has unusually short arms.

I believe Ratliff should stay at NT, he's a natural at penetrating the middle....

well Igor's biceps blow him out of the water, just think about that
