re: Height is such an overrated measurement of talent

Just wondering why you have to drop the 'kid' in there. I didnt make some outlandish comment
You said Matt Stafford and Captain Kirk are better QBs than Russell Wilson.
That's laughable just by comparing passing stats, and gets even worse when you include his ability to run.

Little Drew is so overrated. Interception king. I hope we draft a guy that's taller than my wife next year

Brees is a much better pure athlete than Tom.
Tom is greatness incarnate, but it’s not because he “out-athletes” folks.

Coming out of HS Rodgers was 6'0 170 noodle arm

So before he grew into an actual man?
Brady has never had elite arm strength, and was an average at best deep baller thrower until late in his career. To saw he has the raw arm talent of Rodgers is kind of funny, and he's nowhere near as athletic.
Brady has as close to perfect mechanics as you can get. I don't think he'd even be in the top 10 as far as arm strength.

Height is a physical trait, not a measure of talent.

I get that height is a bonus but it seems that when it comes to the NFL draft players get picked higher just because of it. If Watson was just a couple inches taller he'd have gone before Mitch. Mayfield would be the consensus #1 pick this year for that same reason.

Nah, the run game has made Brees VERY efficient. the TDs aren't there but he's having a GREAT year

There's certainly an argument to be made. Especially when Saint fans have been beating the Brees drum the last five years based on him carrying the offense with a terrible OLine and no defense. Roles have been reversed a bit

Wilson has been killing it this season.
Great passing stats, and the leading rusher on the Seahawks.

Jones must be one of those guys who hasnt seen wilson play since like 2012 and won't come back to defend that original post at all

Height and talent are two different things. Someone can be tall and untalented and someone else can be short and talented.
Posted on 12/1/17 at 10:50 am to WaterLink
I didn't know anyone said "his height is so talented"

Fwiw, Brady worked himself up there. Aaron Rodgers and Peyton were/are far more talented than Brady ever has been.
Ehhh, quarterback "talent" is probably about 1/2 physical.
