I have always believed (based on my observations) that there are "hidden attributes" for each player.
Things like "nose for the QB" in a DE for instance, that give a small but meaningful bonus to pass rushing.
I have quite a few players that have nearly identical builds, but some of them consistently out-perform at some tasks...for inexplicable reasons.
Height and weight obviously have some influence, but that influence seems to be very small.
That being said...is one of your DEs on special teams? ST kills energy in a big way, and definitely affects performance.
