Brandon Allen
Media Guide 2014 6'3 216
2015 6'2 210
Real Measurement 6'1 212
Tretola
Media Guide 6'5 335
Real 6'4 317
Jonathan Williams
Media Guide 6'0 220
Real 5'11 219

So basically everybody on our roster is actually 1-2" shorter and 5-15lbs different. Why do this? It's not like it really matters, guys going pro are going to get measured anyway.

The height I can't explain...but weight is prior to the season. Players shed a lot of weight during the season.

Tretola only 317?? He looks at least 340 !

Yeah I even saw him in one clip today at Senior Bowl, he looked maybe a little trimmer, but 317 shocked me too. In Reality I would guess he played this year around 325, not 340 or 350 like everybody thought.

Tretola was 330 when the season started

Also, Brandon Allen apparently has Cee lo green hands, 8 and 1/2 inches. Tyler Wilson's were 8 and 3/4 inches as comparison.

You don't lie about your measurements?

Maybe.

The hand size thing hurts Allen, they don't like small hands on quarterbacks, man 8 1/2 was kinda shocking. I still think he gets drafted 6 or 7th round.

Since he never had a real problem with throwing a tight spiral, throwing with zip or fumbling, it shouldn't hurt him very much. By all accounts, he's looking as good as anyone there. Wentz, Prescott and Allen are getting all the praise on Twitter. And Allen's arm looks the best.

In an interview yesterday Tretola was asked about his weight of 317...."You know, I'm working on that 6 pack. I need to get my beach body ready"

Tretola is such a funny guy. He was clearly an emotional leader for our team this year. Love that guy

He has DEFINITELY lost weight then. He was way bigger than 317.

I'm watching practice on ESPNU and Tretola has definitely lost a ton of weight. Dude looks like a tackle.
