My opinion on Conerly is based on watching him play. I think he plays a little "undersized". There's just times that the looks physically overmatched. He made up for it with smarts and technique but there were times he looked "out of place".
I mean I have no idea how long Joe Thuney's arms are but you could tell by watching him play that he looked undersized for a tackle.

It's not about how much stock you or I put into it, that's not the point. The Chiefs/Andy clearly put a ton of stock in it, and it could be the difference in whether they take a guy or not.
