More like 6' 160 and he should absolutely be forced to be measured! I don't give a shite if he's a top 5 pick! Should not be his choice at all!

He had an official scout verified height and weight of "6-foot 1/4 inch (or 6002 in scouting parlance) and 170 pounds" last year.

He let them do all of the hand, arm, wingspan measurements at a senior bowl he did not even need to attend. But, he likely wants to add weight being 2 weeks out of the season.

This is the biggest non-story I've ever seen. He will do another height and weight before the draft.

It is no different than QBs electing not to throw at combines, players opting out of the 40 yd dash, etc. Until their own pro day, if they do it at all. It happens all the time.

If the only knock on Smith's draft metrics is weight, it is a business decision, and a smart one, to decline at the senior bowl and take one at a scheduled pro day later.
