James Conner looks trim

[Shawn]

My one concern with Conner has been his playing weight. Looking at his older interviews and looking at his rookie camp interview it's very evident he has trimmed fat and looks solid. I would be surprised if he weights more than 225. He looks good.

At least if Bell goes down, the rest of the team doesn't go down with him.

The current Steelers roster lists James Conner as 6'1" and 233 pounds.

It also lists Le'Veon Bell, who shed weight after college, as 6'1" and 225 pounds.

Sounds accurate, I think he weighed 235 at the combine. It was reported he played at 240 at Pitt much of the time. He had that Bell baby fat in college. I was really impressed with the way he looked during his interview and the brief view I got of him running. Looked trim and quick.

It's interesting that our top 2 RB's are essentially the same size as our top 2 ILB's. Shazier is listed as a little bit larger than Bell (6'1" 230 vs. 6'1" 225), plus Conner and Vince have exactly the same measurements (both 6'1" 233).
