I wasn't referring to a 7 foot guy as a physical freak. I am referring guys that
are strong and put up great combine type numbers but never played football and are 21 and up. Like the track star that runs like a deer, but only in a straight line, the tall heavy strong guy with no balance, etc,etc. I think the only ones have been turning a track star into a wide receiver, but those are very few. Most end up like Renaldo Nehemiah, fast in a straight line and hands of stone.
