Friday morning, Peppers got his official measurements in Indianapolis, and the results were interesting, to say the least:
#Michigan LB/S Jabrill Peppers has measured 5-10 7/8, 213 pounds, 9 5/8 hands, 30 3/4 arms, 74 inch wingspan. #NFLCombine

I still think you have to keep him at LB. It's easier to take an athlete and make him bigger than to take a big guy and make him athletic.

Peppers is about the same size as Karl Joseph-safety picked in the 1st last year-but doesn't have the experience in coverage. Anyways, Peppers is a project
