RB measurement

March 1, 2017

LSU RB Fournette weighs in bigly … Again courtesy of Walter Football, here are the heights and weights for the RBs at this week’s combine in Indianapolis. And again, not many surprises in these data, although a few eyebrows were raised when LSU RB Leonard Fournette weighed in at 240 pounds, about ten pounds more than he was generally thought to be. We’ll see on Friday when the backs hit the field for their on-field drills whether that slows him down any. In fact, Fournette was the heaviest back in today’s weigh-in. D’Onta Foreman had been expected to weigh in at close to 250 pounbs, but he tipped the scales at a relatively svelte 233. Meanwhile, Florida State’s Dalvin Cook, who is battling Fournette for the top grade among the backs, measured in at 5-10, 210, pretty much as expected, while Stanford’s Chritian McCaffrey, another opening round prospect, came in at 5-11, 202.
