Russ Wilson was that height
Drew Brees was 6'0
I don't see a problem here
Drew Brees was 6'0
I don't see a problem here

In that link it shows that he has bigger hands than the other QBs. He'll be fine.

Won't be too bad.
The Humble Russell Wilson burst through the too short glass ceiling. Ensuring future generations of undersized QB's will be treated as equals to their taller counterparts.

Similar in stature, but Drew and Russ go to Charity events on their off days, Manziel tries to make it rain on bitches at a Drake concert.

Next up for Johnny Manziel, how many times can he hit the bullseye at Olympic archery distance!

Guys on ESPN, Mike and Mike I think, pulled up Brees' combine measurements and said he was 6'1. I was surprised by this.

people make too much of his lack of height…
the reason he won't be as effective in the NFL will be due to going faster, smarter, and more instinctive defenses that have broken down mountains of film on the guy…. not saying he'll be shite, but he's not gonna be able to run all over the field like he did in college…

I was listening and heard this as well. There is no way.

They also came back on air and said that site was inaccurate and that he measured in at 6 even

the height issue isn't much of an issue for GM's anymore. I think Brees and Wilson have obviously proved it doesn't matter
Posted on 2/21/14 at 8:51 am to PhiTiger1764
I was listeing as well and heard 6'0 for brees
Posted on 2/21/14 at 8:57 am to L S Usetheforce
well he did keep saying he was 72 inches 
Posted on 2/21/14 at 8:57 am to L S Usetheforce
Johnny and I are the same height

Brees took advantage of the tippy toe exception before the Combine rule was passed
Posted on 2/21/14 at 9:03 am to GeauxAggie972
I think he falls out the top 5 now...maybe top 10. Still a first round talent but his stock has slipped
Posted on 2/21/14 at 9:06 am to PhiTiger1764
Drew brees is not 6 feet tall... 511 if He is lucky
Posted on 2/21/14 at 9:08 am to L S Usetheforce
I think his complete lack of ability to stay in the pocket for more than 2 seconds is a way worse problem than his height.
Posted on 2/21/14 at 9:12 am to L S Usetheforce
He could be 5-6 and the Browns are still going to draft him
