Jack Lambert MLB Pittsburgh 6'4", 219
Lawrence Taylor OLB NYG 6'4" 238
Randy White DT Dallas 6'4" 260
All of these guys were considered the best at their respective positions when they played, but today's players are so much bigger. JaMarcus Russel the LSU QB is 6'5" weighs 260, do you think Jack, Randy, and LT could hang or would they have to change positions? Also, looking back at the players from just 15-20 years ago offensive and defensive linemen, linebackers, and tight ends the size differences are so pronounced. DB's, WR's, and RB's are just slightly bigger. All players are heavier that is I guess from more weightlifting and such. Honestly, I think Randy White could play at 30-40 pounds heavier and be dominant, but LT who was one of the biggest LB's when he started his career would be just average to undersized and Lambert more than likely would be tried at safety at his playing weight.
