5'7" and was called the little General

The Wikipedia says of his football career:

He began his NFL career in 1952 with the Washington Commanders and played with them through 1959, except for 1954 when he played in the Canadian Football League. He was the starting quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys for their first 4 years, 1960 to 1963. He was selected for the Pro Bowl 4 times (1955, 1957, 1958, and 1962), and was the leading NFL passer in 1958. The shortest quarterback to ever be selected to the pro bowl, LeBaron was known primarily as a ball-handler and elusive scrambler.

He's not a HOFer, but the best passer in the league one year and a 4 time Pro Bowler seems pretty successful to me.

I have talked with him......he seems more like 6'1 but I guess he could be a short 6'2''

I believe you're right, the scouts seemed to be puzzled that Grossman actually measured out at 6'1", they thought he would be shorter too. As for Romo, when he gets hit, he goes down like he weighs 180 lbs and Parcells often seems to tower over him too.

How did you detemine that? He hasn't played enough to show that he is easy to take down when hit. He was engulfed by Giants on the sacks on Monday.
