Fall 2013 Football Roster Weights

Football's back. The players reported to camp yesterday, got all of their new gear, had a team meeting, and the most important part for us, got weighed again. The first practice is later today, but for now, let's overanalyze their weights. As always, some come into camp a little too heavy and we speculate, but we never actually know. The tables below show players weights at each weigh-in for the past year. If there is a / with two weights, the first weight is what was listed a few weeks ago, before the weigh-in (freshmen only). Keep in mind, if a player remains roughly the same weight, that doesn't mean they didn't gain muscle. They could have gained 10 pounds of muscles but also lost 10 pounds of fat. So while they're the same weight, it's a much leaner weight. At the bottom positions changes and departures are listed.
