The middling pick is Corbett, maybe Callaway, I think he will turn it around. If every year we draft 1-2 impact players at the top of the draft and 1-2 at the bottom I am in on Dorsey.

Aztec Hammer Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 QB Height is very important in my opinion. Brady is pretty much elite in every aspect of quarterbacking but it’s his height that often isn’t spoken about I think. The sheer number of passes he is able to complete from within the pocket when the rush comes around him and he steps up into it is hugely helped by the size of the guy. You see him standing in there taller than everyone else and able to see and deliver. It’s absolutely a positive factor. That being said, if you can play, you can play. But I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the GOAT QB is pushing 6’5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aztec Hammer Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Mattering less and less now though as we move to a glorified college offense era and get the ball out fast to playmakers on quick hitters and let them make the yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't like any of those picks except the Callaway pick, but you're giving up on these guys way too quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the GOAT QB is pushing 6’5. I dunno, Young, Montana, Rodgers and Favre are all 6'2. Elway and Marino were 6'3. Unitias and Brees under 6'2. Manning is 6'5. Brady is the only top QB listed at 6'4 so it looks more like a coincidence than anything else just looking at the numbers. 6'2 appears to be the ideal height for an all time great QBs.

MWil23 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 The hard part is, we don't know if there is a correlation or a causation for the QB and height argument. The sample size is so small (no pun intended) for QB's 6'7 and taller or under 6'2 (who were actually drafted high, not mid round flier types) that it makes it nearly impossible to gauge. As someone else pointed out, I'd rather have height in a vacuum assuming everything else is equal. If Baker were 6'4, I think we'd all prefer that. The same would go for about any other position. Being short doesn't make you a bad prospect/football player, but it is something that is used against you, very similar to guys who have great film but struggle in a particular area during the combine. If you have elite measurables and elite film, that's obviously better. That said, plenty of guys are breaking the norm/status quo. Pat Mahomes and Goff came from an Air Raid system. Trubisky was a 1 year starter. I think that traditional scouting is going to evolve and start to go by the wayside on some of these things going forward.

I consider that tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
