I don't think that it is very important at all...Brandon Hoyte was only like 5'11", and I think he was a pretty darn good LB. Zach Thomas would be a professional example of a LB who is very good despite a smaller frame.
I do think size is a plus, but not all that important. Plus, David is still a junior and has plenty of time to add on a couple of inches and pounds.
