*Hand size, arm length and wingspan in inches
EDGE Winners
Dallas Turner: Turner’s length stood out more than anything else during his measurements. An 83-inch wingspan? At 6 feet 2 inches?? That’s crazy! How crazy is that, you ask? Turner has the same stature as the following NBA stars: Luka Doncic (6 feet 6 inches), Jayson Tatum (6-7), Damontas Sabonis (6-10), Lauri Markkanen (6-11). Turner has only helped his cause as he looks to become the first EDGE rusher selected in the draft. He is currently the highest ranked EDGE prospect in CBS Sports Prospect Rankings.
To Jared: Length and scope of the verse were standing based on his spring measurements, which is surely a good thing for his trait stock. He is number 3 on CBS Sports.
The EDGE losers
Chop Robinson: Robinson’s arm span and length were among the lowest recorded at the combine since 1999. That said, Robinson’s measurements are similar to those of former Pro Bowl passer Yannick Ngakoue. from 2016but Robinson should do better than Ngakoue when it comes to the 40-yard dash.

*Hand size, arm length and wingspan in inches
DL winners
T’Vondre sweatshirt: Sweat answered all the questions about his weight after not weighing in at the Senior Bowl. His weight Thursday was the same weight he played at during his time at Texas, 366 pounds, which placed him in the top 5 heaviest players of all time.
Fabien Lovett: The Florida State product has very impressive length, as his 35 1/2 inch arms are the third longest by an interior defensive lineman in NFL Combine history. His wingspan (83 1/2 inches), meanwhile, is in the 90th percentile at his position.
The DL losers
Byron Murphy II: Murphy’s lack of length should come as no surprise. This likely further deterred teams who were hesitant to place him at the top of their draft board. That shouldn’t deter teams that were optimistic about him before today, however.
