But where are you getting Mack Wilson as 6', 225 lb? ESPN and sports-reference.com list him as 6'2", 239 lbs. 

I see him listed as 6'1 235 ( thought it was 230) so I always knock off an inch and 5 lbs before the All Star games and Combine because they are always shorter and play with a lighter weight than listed.

And I always hear " It's a passing league" They still have to take on offensive linemen and clog holes against the run. Linebackers have to do both.

I don't see the talent at linebacker that I did last year.
