Miami DE Rueben Bain says NFL teams unconcerned with arm length
- At his Indianapolis press conference, Bain said no NFL teams mentioned arm length during interviews, adding 'None of the teams seem too concerned with it.'
- Scouting benchmarks note questions surfaced late in the college season after reports that Bain's arms measured 30 3/4 inches, below the 33-inch preference, but he said 'None of the teams seem too concerned with it.'
- On tape and in statistics, Bain counters length criticism with 9.5 sacks and 15.5 tackles for loss last season at Miami, with NFL scouts noting his production and draft projections as top-10/first-round.
- Looking toward the April draft, Bain said he plans to show at Miami's pro day on March 25 and does not expect arm length to impact his selection.
- Evaluators say teams consider arm length case by case, noting a 2–3 inch gap can influence decisions, but technique and tape use can offset shorter arms, according to coaches and evaluators.
