If I uderstood him correctly they aren't locked into 6'6" - 6'7" as much, but the 6'4" guy needs to have long arms. That doesn't bode well for Derek Barnett as he came in at 6'3 and had the 7th shortest arms among all DL. Jordan Willis ticked off the boxes though, 6'4, 33.5" arms. could be a solid 3rd round pick.
I caught that too. Still, if a guy produces that should be more important than long arms.
Bottom line is the guy has to be able to get to the QB and stop the run. Solomon Thomas is an End that can do this.
He is not a sack machine but he just gets in there and works, very physical with violent hands.
What college is Willis from BTW?
