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

many also expected him to lose weight..
 
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
 
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 BAN-INCOMING-IN-3-2-1 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.

(It updates once the official numbers come in)

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 BAN-INCOMING-IN-3-2-1 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...

You could be right...

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.

Since your obvioulsey still taking things way to seriousley just ignore me and i will gladly do the same with you.
