Quote:Let me put it like this Darren Sproles is 5'6" and 190lbs. 

 

Carey is 5" 10" and played well in college but was only 196 lbs. I am not saying it will factor into how well he plays, but it will factor into how many hits he will be able to take. He will be taking way more hits than a QB will. 

 

Also, the fact that he is adding weight shows it is a valid concern, but my issue with that is he risk loosing some of the playmaking ability he had due to the added weight. And I am not just talking about a 3-5lbs here. From what I have heard he wants to get up to a playing weight of 210lbs - 215lbs. That is 15 - 20lbs difference than what he played at in college......just saying
 

Agreed. 

 

Just as more perspective - MoJo when drafted at 5' 8", 203.
