217014170 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 It really depends on the assessment method. The margin of error is really quite wide...again depending on the method. Like everything in the NFL, individual measurements are used to compare against a population. Each team may use different methods which makes consistency/accuracy a challenge. Case in point, Jeff Burris routinely was calculated as having almost 0% body fat using the Bod Pod. With a margin of error of 5%-15%, BMI is best used (and, to be fair, usually is) as a complement to other metrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Yeah I doubt that...even the lowest percentage bodybuilders taking fat shredding steroids and completely dehydrating themselves before competitions are usually only 3%... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayman Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Ironically Jameis was his college roommate and his physique has been criticized with assumption that he doesn't eat well. Assumption?

Not at the table Karlos Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Coy wire was around this percentage. IIRC one machinemeasured him at negative body fat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 he should get up to 200 with 5% bodyfat then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 John Miller's pretty low for a linemen as well -- 11.5% -- the second lowest measurement for any OL at the combine. He may be short for an OG, but he's a solid 300-pounds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsForever Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Not even joking- is that healthy?!? I'm no expert but it seems crazy Lance Armstrongs BPM are at around 30-35 for a cyclist. For the average person they would be hospitalized and when hooked up to a heart monitor it would be going crazy and it would show a flat line with a little blip every so often. Unless you are a doctor it's hard to say about the body fat thing. Things are different for athletes who train for specific things vs. us the average individual.
