That’s why I used that Strongem and Stankoven comparison.

But I think there is a subtle difference between drafting specifically for size and size just factoring in to the decision. I doubt Conroy told his scouts to give him a list of big players and then worked off of that list alone. Liking a plyer partly because of their size isn't the same as focusing on size.
