Locker has his share of problems. However size is not one of them. Being 6'2 is not really short enough for scouts to hold it against him, and his muscle mass is the kind of thing that scouts like to see as it indicates he should be able to handle any beating he might take at the next level, though what does concern scouts is his tendency to run with reckless abandon. Even Gruden gave him a hard time for not sliding during this play. Though Locker claims he was trying to get down before taking a big hit.
Note: Start the video at 0:40 to see the hit I'm referring to
By the way my faith is renewed in Locker
