There were so many dinosaurs across so much of the globe for so many millions of years, that there was undoubtedly some species of raptors and related dinosaurs who were absolutely fluffy and chubby and look nothing like we imagine them to look from their bones.

Look at one of those speciality breed chickens that look like floofy mops, compared with an average chicken skeleton and you get an idea just how little we actually know and how wrong we might be about the distant past.
