Wow, why are this year's QBs all smallish for the position?

Pickett 6'2"

Willis/Howell/ Corral 6'

Carson Strong at 6'4" will be there and will be ready! He's the outlier in this class.

 

Look at the best young QBs in the NFL. Most don't fit that 6'4" model. Hell, most great QBs don't period. Ideally, sure you'd love for your QB to be 6'4"+. But a ton of great QBs were shorter than that and I'll take elite skills and instincts over an elite measuring tape all day everyday. Elite skills and instincts will make for a great QB whether he's 6' or 6'5"

Tom Brady 6'3"

Matthew Stafford 6'3" 

Patrick Mahomes 6'3"

These are our most recent greats. Size matters. Especially in the NFL.

6' QBs just don't hold up for long especially if they are lightweight. Look at RG3, Tua struggling, Kyler Murray struggling. Limitations become that much more amplified in the NFL.

IF Sam Howell was bigger he'd be more highly regarded, but when you come in under 6' that really hurts an NFL prospect.
