Richard sligh stood 7' and several others have been that tall Dondre Harris 7' 380 John Krahn 7' 440 Josh Martin 7' 290 brave Williams 7' 400.

Answer 3

NFL teams often lie on their official roster listings of a players height & weight. There are many players in the NFL today listed at 6'7" . Many of them are offensive lineman all listed in the 340 to 350 lbs range.
William Perry (refrigerator) was listed at about 325 lbs.
Ed too tall Jones may have been the tallest ever at 6'9"

Answer 4

I remember an offensive tackle that Buffalo drafted out of the University of Nevada recently named Mike Rockwood who was 7' tall! As for the heaviest, I remember reading about a high school player in Pennsylvania several years ago whose name escapes me that was 6'3" and weighed an incredible 517 lbs.! Everything had to be custom made for this kid! He played goalline defensive tackle because to run up the middle on him, teams had to triple team him on the inside, thereby plugging up the holes intened for their backs to run through!

Answer 5

I think it was the guy who played nose tackle for the Green Bay Packers a few years back....I think his name might have been Gilbert Perry...Supposedly he was close if not over 400lbs...
