J Football officially 5'11 3/4"

[JoeyBoy718]

Anybody know Brees and Wilson's official heights? Honestly I think it's a little overrated if you're mobile. In the case of Brees and even Flutie, those guys were just special. I've noticed Brees' throwing motion has probably impacted by his height. He has a bit of a catapult motion in my opinion.

JF weighed in at 207 lbs with 9 7/8 inch hands.

Russell Wilson: 5-10 5/8” – 204 pounds – 10 1/4" hands
Drew Brees: 6-0 1/4" – 213 pounds – 10 1/4" hands
Michael Vick: 6-0 – 210 pounds – 8 1/2" hands

I saw this tweeted earlier and was surprised Manziels weight(207lbs) is actually more than Wilson who is listed as 5'11" 206lbs, RW just appears thicker built to the eye.

Part of that may be because Russell is about an inch shorter than Manziel.

Wilson has a different body type. Manziel came off pretty good in his presser.

Don't have a problem with his numbers. Hands a little small for nfl standards. 9 7/8 just over the 9 1/2 the league likes to see.
Looking a Vicks hands you can see why he has had fumbles.

I think Russell is just naturally thicker. Manzeil was listed at 6-1 200lbs by the Aggies. Obviously, that was fudged just a bit. I suspect that he has put on weight prior to the combine, which is common.


Russell, while at Wisconsin, was listed at 5-11 201 lbs. His combine weight was 204 lbs so he probably is a little bigger.

I've heard he wears size 15 shoes. Size 15 for a guy 5'11 3/4"?????? Wow.......

Hands...small? Manziel?
His hands are giant compared to the other QBs in camp
Maybe those guys just have small hands though.

Manziel's hands were 9 7/8, the largest of any QB at the combine. Though they don't measure feet, he wears a size 15 shoe.

Guess that could be part of it

I'm the same height as Johnny and I also wear a size 15 shoe. It's not uncommon.

Is Logan Thomas not at the combine? Because no way is 9 7/8 hands bigger than Logan Thomas' gigantic mits.. his hand covers half the football when he holds it.

Not sure, but I agree I'd bet Thomas hand size is bigger

Size 15 shoe on a 5'11" dude is not uncommon...come on, I'm 5'11" and only wear a 9.5. Size 15 is HUGE...

 

[Nirvana]

I personally can't stand when players who are perfectly healthy don't do the requested drills at the combine. This is a job interview pal.

Sorry dude, it is uncommon, you just have big feet. But hey, you know what they say.

I guess because he drives a landrover he is allowed to dim?
