a few years ago CBs were allowed to maul WRs all the way down the field (the panthers were the worst offenders and rode WR abuse to the SB). at the time big receivers were necessary cause they took less injuries and could use strength to break away.
now with the 5 yard rule actually being called, being big helps more in the red zone than in the open field, which is how it should be.
