Burrow and Mahomes have the smallest hands in the league.

Most of our games are in a temp controlled dome. I wouldn’t not draft Pickett based off of his hand measurement.

The smallest hands are backups or arent in the league.

those two guys are at the bottom of the threshold, but not out of it

he is hard to grade for me because everything he does is off script and off platform. Which he is really good at, but you also have to understand the competition level is poor and he can just kind of frick around with these kids.

He will be dependent on the coordinator, much like Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson, and if they let him be himself. The height doesn't scare me, he is clearly talented enough physically. The right team just has to buy in. I think he can win games in the league

I don't understand this.

Burrow - 9"
Mahomes - 9.25"
Mayfield - 9.25"

Why the NFL combine built a myth around QB hand size, a measurement that doesn't mean anything

A lot of screen-gazers want to sound like they know football.

The biggest issue the Q.B.'s have with smaller hands is gripping a wet ball.

Yep.

This idiot brings up the hand size every year and he is proven wrong every year.

So he skipped the measurement? I guess he will work on exercises to try and stretch them. My understanding is that Pickett's hand size is rumored to be extremely small. One rumor has it at less than 8.5 inches.

And holding onto the ball when contacted in the pocket.

Pelissero reported today that because Pickett has a double-jointed thumb, he is doing exercises to ensure an accurate measurement at the combine.
