[edit] What's his real size???

Well there seems to be a little dispute over his real size:

Hes listed as 6.5 239 here: http://www.admirals.nl/team/2006/bio...an_gibran.html but I distinctly remember him being 6.4... ill do a bit of research...

Listed as 6.6 240 here: http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/395976

Listed as 6.5 239 in his draft profile: http://www.nfl.com/draft/profiles/hamdan_gibran

Listed as 6.4 208 at http://www.rotoworld.com/Content/pla...port=NFL&id=96

I believe the 6.4 is correct, however need exclusive proof. Anyone?
