On Tuesday, Will Muschamp released his depth chart but it was also revealed the current height and weights of each player.

As most expect, Jeff Dillman has done a great job in the weight room this offseason and several guys have gained good weight.

One of the biggest weight gainers was redshirt freshman defensive end Bryan Cox Jr. who arrived at Florida 6-foot-3, 235-pounds and is now 6-foot-3, 260-pounds.

Two of the early enrollees who have only been on campus for two months have gained good weight. Receiver Demarcus Robinson has gained 6 pounds and is now 201-pounds and running back Kelvin Taylor has gained 10 pounds and is now 215-pounds.

Another early enrollee who is expected to get a lot of playing this year is linebacker Daniel McMillian, he is up 7 pounds and now weighs in at 227-pounds.

Early Enrollee linebacker Alex Anzalone has added 10 pounds of muscle and is now 230-pounds in only 2 months at Florida.

Defensive end Alex McCalister arrived at Florida last summer at 212-pounds and is now up to an impressive 230-pounds which will help get on the field.

Last season linebacker Antonio Morrison played a little underweight but he is well on his way to getting bigger as he has already gained 11 pounds and is 229-pounds now.

Junior cornerback Marcus Roberson has gained 17 pounds and is now 195-pounds, which will help him when going up against big receivers.

Some players went into the offseason needing to lose some weight.

One of those guys was sophomore BUCK linebacker Dante Fowler Jr., who has lost 14 pounds and is now playing with 263-pounds of good weight.

With the loss of 14 pounds Fowler will be lighter on his feet and will help him improve his pass rush even more off the edge.

After sitting out last year due to a torn ACL, BUCK linebacker Ronald Powell has lost 10 pounds and is down to 234-pounds.

Offensive lineman Trip Thurman has also lost 10 pounds and is now listed at 313-pounds. Additionally, offensive lineman Jon Halapio has lost 6 pounds and is now 315-pounds.

Fullback Hunter Joyer has lost 14 pounds this offseason and is now 235-pounds.
