A WR with 100 STR is not the same as a DT with 100 STR (the strongest WR in the game is not going to be as strong as the strongest DT in the game). They can have weight influence that as well, either by modifying the rating (low weight lowers STR, so a player that would have had 100 STR now has 80 because he weighs only 240 LBs) or by making that part of the relative scale (a DT with 100 STR and 300 lbs is going to be stronger then a DT with 100 STR and 250 lbs) Could do this as well for anything else weight would impact, like hit power, blocking, or trucking.

OVR is directly tied to how the AI values a given player. I'm not arguing for this, but it is, and always has been, a fact. If OVR isn't going anywhere, than I think this makes sense. A tall WR should have more value than a shorter one, everything else being held equal. More value=higher OVR.
