Sorry if this has been covered, couldn't find anything in the back threads.

So, what say you? My first impression is definitely the taller the better for coverage purposes, unless you're a returner, since smaller guys may be harder to tackle.

Weight's a little trickier. Lighter obviously means faster, but larger may mean stronger and a higher pass deflection or balls knocked loose bonus.

So does height and weight matter, or is it a negligible thing that a good build can overcome?

I have 2 CBs that I started about the same time who have not wildly different builds...I've also been more impressed with the play of the taller CB.
