Updated Weights

[JeffInDC]

Now, I know that this information is not as important to some as it is to others (like myself), but, I just went on ourlads.com to check out the up-to-date depth chart. When you see the chart & click on a player's name, it shows their most recent weights as recorded by the team. I'm figuring that the info is correct since any time I've read an article on Canty or Coleman, the are both being reported as weighing 295. That is what Ourlads has both of them listed as. With that in mind, check out some of these numbers (the weight increases are quite staggering for some):

Player ('05 Weight, '04 Weight):
Singleton - 250, 236
James - 250, 245
Shanle - 245, 237
Thornton - 245, 240
Dat - 238, 238
O'Neil - 240, 235

Ellis - 280, 271
Glover - 290, 282
Coleman - 295, 284
Carson - 305, 292
Brooks - 305, 297

I just did some of the defensive guys to give everyone and idea of what Parcell's must have wanted them to do this year: gain weight so that they can be more physical. By the way, Flo weighed in @ 335.

A birdie told me yesterday that Singleton has played at 228 his whole career.

Sweet...I've been curious about some of them...especially Ellis, Glover and Coleman....

BP obviously wants all of his DE's to be 295 and NT around 305...

CR, that wouldn't shock me at all. Just seems strange though that they would list him at that weight when it seems that the other weights being reported for other guys are (pretty much) dead on from what has been printed or said in PC or radio shows. Like Flo being listed @ 335 doesn't shock me one bit when everyone that has attended the camp keeps saying that he looks rather thin. So, it is quite possible that Singleton did gain some weight to (maybe) help save his position or roster spot. 250 might be a stretch, but 240? That is quite possible.

No way Singleton weighs 250. PERIOD

Much bigger across the board. I like it.

Much like your posts regarding Singleton, that is redundant.

If you don't believe Singleton is 250, then why do you believe the others?

 

[joseephuss]

I don't think Singleton is 250. All the linebackers look to weigh about the same. Between 240 and 250 with Singleton closer to the 240. Nothing wrong with that. None is significantly bigger than anyone else. I think a couple of the younger guys can probably add some more weight the longer they play in the NFL.

The others fit his agenda, can't let facts or logic ruin a self-centered rant.

 

[Qwickdraw]

Who's Al Singleton?
Is he a Cowboy?

 

[Nors]

Is he at camp? Not a peep out of Als. He's a longshot to beat the younger kids out.

Ware, Burnett stealing the thunder.

 

[Nors]

DC.Com does not have updated weights. Everything is rounded. Looks like hocus pocus

 

[Galian Beast]

Singleton's weight increase sure is interesting. He probably knows that being undersized, he had to get bigger or else he would lose the starting job to Burnett. Which I still think he will

Glad to see that James and Shanle are a little bigger too.

Not happy to see that Dat Nguyen is still at 238. I was hoping he would be around 245.

I knew Ellis would be bigger. Glover too. But I wish Glover was closer to 300.

Flozell at 335 8-0, he has slimmed down quite a bit.

Another birdie told me he will not be a Cowboy this year. And no, I'm not affiliated in any way with Nors.

those are bogus weights


DC.Com has different #'s

I don't know about the present, but in the past DC.Com would have weights listed that came from rookie listings, and wouldn't change them. You would see reports of a player getting up to 245lbs and his listing would still be the same 230lbs it had always been. And with weekly or monthly variation possible.....

Perhaps it is just lazy guys at the website.

 

[speedkilz88]

Al Singleton was listed as 228 when he was a rookie, but when the Cowboys signed him as a FA, I remember Mickey on the radio discussing with others that Singleton looked a lot bigger than that by just looking at him. It sounds to me that they just never updated his numbers.

How do you know those weights were recorded by the team?

Is it a bad thing that I'm heavier than every single one of our LBs??
