Say that again but slowly next time. 😂

 

Slow as in 

he has never played at 280

but showed up to camp out of shape at 280 before getting down to 270 for the season.  Not sure how hard this is to comprehend for some people.  He has literally been playing at the same size as Burns is right now for 5+ plus seasons whether you believe it or not.

Slow as in he was never 280... except for when he showed up to camp at 280. 😂

If they're admitting he was 280 he was probably pushing three bills. I don't think the Panthers ever acknowledged Jenkins ever getting north of 360.

So you’re saying he cut from 3 bills to 270 in 1 camp?  Come on now.  You’re grasping for excuses now.

Whether you believe it or not, he’s been playing at the same size as Burns is now.

I honestly think Jenks was over 400 here and jets version as well. 

The difference is Jenks was still a force of nature while over weight, Brown has rookie heat wave status and thats been his best given the cold front sophomore season. 

Did everyone for get KB showing up to camp 300-280???

Jenkins was 100% at 400

No. I'm saying that teams really don't care about listed weights and when key players show up overweight the number that eventually comes out is likely significantly south of the actual weight. Anyone who thinks Jenkins didn't tickle four bills wasn't paying attention. The dude got HUGE yet I never saw the Panthers as an organization ever admit it and why would they? What's the competitive benefit? These aren't professional fighters. They're not having to hit a weight limit where they're stepping on the scale in a televised setting.

If the Cardinals are admitting Jones showed up at 280, the actual number was probably higher.

And then he showed up 265 after that and they had him at 255

in 2017 and every year since.

Maybe. Maybe not. I don't think Smitty ever weighed 185 again after the Combine, but he was always listed at 185.

It's a non-issue as long as you play well and aren't noticeably sloppy fat.

    • So you can explain how he was top 10....but won't.  We need to look it up ourselves?  I googled it.  Can't find the argument based on stats and facts. 
    • Well, I think Nike has it all down to a sweet mathematical science to max revenue of what they average person will buy in terms of price....and what the average person will do with a dirty jersey.   Then they construct them accordingly.   and yeah, it's not about being tackled in them but I'm sure Nike knows exactly how each tier will react to washings...and then sunlight, heat, fading and on and on.    Just asking google about it there are tons of tiktoks, you tubes, reddit posts, etc with folks complaining about what a simple wash can do to a new one.    Your washing machine gets cooler tech....so you pay more now and it doesn't last as long .  My son's football cleats that help max speed got a hole in them before they even made it into the season this past year.     Now our football jersey's are lightweight with new mesh because it's totally better.....the end game is always because the big corporations have found the synergy between new and improved and not lasting as long.  That's my take.  I think everything is made to wear out sooner under the guise of but it's better today.
