Monday morning weigh-in...

Its known colloquially as the ‘meat market’ phase of the Senior Bowl as strip down to their skivvies and parade across a stage to be measured and weighed. There are always surprises in who weighs what. And, unfortunately, those surprises are mostly disappointments as players don’t quite ‘measure’ up to what was expected. Perhaps the biggest surprise at this year’s weigh-in was the fact that Memphis RB DeAngelo Williams, who is considered to be a potential top 10 pick this coming April, only measured in at a tad over 5-8 and 207 pounds. Williams has generally been listed in the past at 5-10, 217.

it shouldn't kill his draft stock that much, but all the same, he's small for what we want.

 

True, it's a lot smaller than I thought, but it will be interesting to see if he's still that small by the combine. A lot of guys do lose weight over the course of the season, so it may not be representative of his initial playing weight. That said, it's still about the same weight as most of the other backs in this draft, only he's a lot shorter and therefore more compact, making him more capable of holding up under a larger number of carries.
