Especially in a 3-4 when he sometimes has more ground to cover laterally.

It's OK to fall in love with a prospect that happens to have a sub-par measurable, that's OK. We're fans. 
But let's not try to reinvent the wheel making excuses for it. 

His arms are short and plenty of front offices aren't going to like that. Period. 

Luckily for him, it just takes one GM to believe in him and see him as a fit.

And you know which GM doesn’t like short arms? Baalke. Just look at his DT and DE draft record.

Yeah, I don't think Baalke will draft him.  He overdrafts to measurables.  There is always outliers as Boselli talked about the other day.  Of course you always want the guy to be the biggest, fastest, and have the best measurables but there are outliers and some guys have traits you have to overlook those things you would love for everyone to have.
