As I said.....we're fluid. I guarantee you if there were a prospect folks didn't like and he had short arms; they'd damn sure bring it up. 

I saw folks do it last year with QBs and hand size...btw...Justin Herbert had 10" hands

I haven't seen one person say Sewell is going to be a bust because of arm length, but bottom line; if you're designing the perfect LT from scratch; you'd want arms closer to 35" than 33". 

I like Sewell and would be ecstatic if we take him at 5OA, but if I was wanting to go with "generational talent". I'd like the arms to at least reach 34"

But we are not "designing" a player. We are evaluating players. Longer arms might be an advantage, but only if you know how to use them. It's not arm length people should look at, it's what the player does with the length of his arms. He can be a so so knuckledragger, or he can have shorter arms and know how to use them and be a beast.
