The answer in athletics is ALWAYS the same-PEDS.
Why can't a DB be big and fast? The best WR's, Jerry Rice and Randy Moss were both tall and fast. And Richard Sherman and Cam Chanceller are larger than normal for their size but the others DB's not so much. Seattle "suddenly" discovered how to think outside the box... instead of thinking a QB has to be 6'-4" they get Wilson in the 3rd round. Instead of thinking DB's have to be 5'-10", they get Sherman and Chanceller both in the 5th round.
To imply that Seattle is doping and no one else is is as ridiculous as thinking only N.O. trys to take players out of the game!
