Miami edge rusher Rueben Bain Jr. put up a remarkable stat sheet in his junior season with the Hurricanes, racking up 9.5 sacks and helping lead Miami to an appearance in the College Football Playoff National Championship.

But the pre-draft discourse around Bain has centered on his arm length, which is projected to be somewhat short for a defensive end. At his media availability at the NFL Combine on Feb. 25, Bain said the teams he spoke with are not worried about it.
