Jazz players tend to go for the smallest equipment, which I think isn't necessarily always the best choice. Robin Eubanks plays a larger bore horn than trombonists normally play in small group situations, but he gets a wondeful, fat sound out of it. It takes chops, but it can be done. I would suggest that you think about what kind of sound you want rather than what everyone else is playing.
