1. In the WWPF we were not sure if weight and height matters for each position.
2. How does the advantage or disadvantage affect the players? And is this affect already included in the visible OVR?

It is not calculated in OVR. Heavy players are harder to block/move around, but if they're too heavy they're considered overweight and have issues with mobility. Tall players have advantages over shorter players for pass catching etc. Not sure I would focus too much on them as they're relative minor variables, but they do have effects.

1. So too heavy is overweight
1.1 When is too heavy, too heavy?
1.2 Does the naked weight count, or is there a BMI calculation?

2. Who to choose?
2.1 Fast Receiver 85 OVR, 6 '5' '
2.1 Fast Receiver 92 OVR, 5 '10' '

300 pound RB, too heavy... 120 pound RB, too light. Not going to give out the formula. At a certain point differences in build are so minor compared to speed, strength, hands, etc. I don't want people focusing on the wrong things.
