Has anyone run a basic BMI on Liggins? It's what insurance companies look at when rating...
6'3"
270lbs
18yr male
33.7 BMI (OBESE)
Mine is 32.7 and I'm fat and haven't been to a gym in years.
Liggins is Obese, at 280lb he's 35.0 which is medically Considered chronic. It's a medical fact...
Now as for the 4.6, saw that on bleacher report and it could limit his runs IMO to short yardage which increases injury risk, as does bad conditioning. It's risky at best and the upside is Rohan Davey, which has value to be sure, but next year we need 2 QB's and Miles has to stop it with the pet projects. He opened his remarks defensively to the press at the news conference and his later remarks in praise of Liggins have torpedoed into national controversy.

According to the BMI index Tim Tebow is obese at 6'3 240. He would have a BMI value of 30 which is in the obese range.
I don't think the BMI was designed to rate highly conditioned athletes. Someone who was a couch potato at 6'3 270 is a very different human than an active athlete at the same stats.
Just my opinion but it does make some sense.

Wrong, BMI is extremely misleading and a very poor measure. You have body builders and professional fitness trainers that are cut to pieces with high BMI's and they are in noway obese. The better measurement is Body Fat not Body Mass.

Your logic is beyond terrible. I want you to tell 6'3" 310 pound Anthony Johnson that he is beyond obese. Have you ever heard of body-builders?
