I know what you're getting at, but theoretically, the Florida Gators would beg to differ. His biggest shortcoming was his weight, until he weighed in. It was possibly also his size, but he measured out okay. Now, its going to be the fact that he didn't compete at the combine. That is semi-fair. He's got bad advice, in may people's opinion. He may or may not prove those to be wrong. If he does, he very well may have another knock that comes out of nowhere. I would love to know why he's getting knocked down boards. It very well could be that there are teams that either want to trade down and still have a shot at him, or some team with a mid first round pick wants a shot at him (Minnesota?)
Frame isn't the same as weight, but even his weigh-in no longer counts because he obviously thought he couldn't compete at that weight. He better weigh in well and then put up really good numbers at his pro day or he's going to slide really far.

To weigh in and show that he put on 10 pounds and do the press conference and interviews, but nothing that would expose his weight gain as a fraud.
You can say "looks like" all you want, but if it was, he'd have run, unless it was completely unfounded fear of competition rearing it's ugly head.
