Also, Tank really fits into that size bracket needed for the NT position.
Here are all the NT's in the league, and their average/stdev of height and weight. Tank fits in both. BJ Raji is actually smaller in height (but not weight) for the NT position.
Actual NT players:
| Player | Weight (pounds) | Height (Feet, Inches) |
| Total (inches) | | Jay Alford | 304 | 6 | 3 | 75 | | Remi Ayodele | 318 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | Alan Branch | 332 | 6 | 5 | 77 | | Adam Carriker | 308 | 6 | 6 | 78 | | Kendrick Clancy | 305 | 6 | 1 | 73 | | Barry Cofield | 306 | 6 | 4 | 76 | | Lamar Divens | 333 | 6 | 3 | 75 | | Fred Evans | 305 | 6 | 4 | 76 | | Chris Hoke | 305 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | Maake Kemoeatu | 345 | 6 | 5 | 77 | | Scott Paxson | 292 | 6 | 4 | 76 | | Clifton Ryan | 316 | 6 | 3 | 75 | | Brian Schaefering | 295 | 6 | 4 | 76 | | Isaac Sopoaga | 330 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | Gabe Watson | 332 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | Vince Wilfork | 325 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | Willie Williams | 305 | 6 | 4 | 76 |

|
| | Average Weight | 315.1 | Average Height | 75.3 |
| | STDEV | 15.2 | STDEV | 1.4 |
|
Prospective NT players:
| Player | Weight (pounds) | Height (Feet, Inches) |
| Total (inches) | | Tank Tyler | 306 | 6 | 2 | 74 | | B.J. Raji | 323 | 6 | 1 | 73 | | Glenn Dorsey | 297 | 6 | 1 | 73 |
Tank actually fits the mold the best out of the three. Glenn is too short and small. Raji is too short. Tank is within the weight and height. |
no way Tank is 306. I'm not buying it. He's huge. Definitely more than 9 #s heavier than Dorsey.
