If true, holy crap thats tiny. I mean 5”10 - 5’11” is pushing it to be a QB in the NFL, but 5’7” that’s insanely small.

That’s small for an avg Joe just walking the streets.

No way I’m throwing a 1st round pick on a guy this vertically challenged.

Eddie LeBaron thinks that is plenty tall.

For comparison, Sproles is listed at 5’6”


These are wee men.

I doubt he's 5'7''

But he's VERY short for an NFL QB. And he has midget traits that bother me. Mostly his large skull.

Some analyst yesterday was suggesting that the Cardinals may trade Rosen and take Murray first overall. That's pretty insane, imo.

He won't be a QB in the NFL, maybe a return guy or slot receiver.

here he is next to antonio brown, who is listed at 5'10. he looks to be an inch shorter than antonio here, so 5'9 tops

Brees is 6'0 and Russel Wilson is 5'11. He does seem smaller than them. I would guess 5'10. Trindon Holiday was 5'5 and he looks a good bit taller then Trindon. Size wise he looks like Brandon Cooks who is 5'10.

It is harder to make it to the show in baseball, but Damn if I turn down 5 MM.

If he were 5’7” he’d standout much more than he does on the field. And he wouldn’t be able to throw from the pocket like he can

I’d say he’s pushing 5’10”. Which is fine as long as he has hands the size of a much bigger man

Curious if he has received the money from th A’s....or if they have it parked and ready for when he shows up.. If he has received, then he’s paid taxes and possibly taken a hit in the market making the repayment side a little trickier.. much less the tax consequences of recapturing the payback..not sure how all that works contractually

How can people not see that he's around 5'7" or 5'8"?

Do you people have eyeballs? He looks like a fricking midget out there.

Doug Flutie was listed as 5'10" and was considered a midget by NFL standards.

Drew Brees is generously listed as 6' and is considered short in the NFL.

5' 7" is insanely small for NFL standards and even small for people walking the street.

But Brees thrives, Flutie won 3 Grey Cups and 6 MVPs and led the Bills to a 10-5 record.
