Given the discussion about weight with Beh, I found this article to be appropriate, especially this part:
"Our eyes deceive us sometimes," said one college coach with a laugh. "Lots of schools get scared off by how heavy a lineman is -- or isn't -- or why he doesn't have more offers or is only rated a two-star and they'd rather go for the big, heavy kid rather than a kid 40-50 pounds lighter who is 6-4 or 6-5 and has much better feet. A lot of times that (heavier, higher-ranked) kid may dominate just because he's mauls people in high school but what happens when he's got to play in space against much faster people?"
..."There is such a need for good foot quickness, balance and agility, and those things are very hard to find," said Jones, who apparently is a pretty shrewd evaluator/developer of talent.
