The significance of size in quarterback evaluations
The evaluation and selection of quarterbacks has often ignored the importance of size. However, recent developments suggest that size does matter and can significantly impact a quarterback's success in the NFL. Small quarterbacks like Bryce Young may face challenges compared to their larger counterparts.
The changing perceptions of smaller quarterbacks
In the past, smaller quarterbacks were often overlooked or deemed risky choices. However, recent success stories such as Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray seemed to challenge this perception. Yet, recent performances, particularly by CJ Stroud, highlight the significance of size in quarterback evaluations.
The potential drawbacks of small quarterbacks
While smaller quarterbacks can succeed in the NFL, there are potential drawbacks to consider. Their smaller stature may make them more susceptible to injury, and their size may limit their ability to make certain throws or weather certain situations.
The impact of size on draft evaluations
Ten years ago, it is unlikely that Bryce Young would have been selected ahead of CJ Stroud due to the importance placed on size. However, recent trends and success stories may have led evaluators to overlook the significance of size in quarterback evaluations.
Implications for the future of quarterbacks
The recent performance of CJ Stroud suggests that size does matter and that smaller quarterbacks may face challenges in their NFL careers. This may lead evaluators to reconsider the importance of size in future quarterback evaluations.
Bomani Jones and Domonique Foxworth preview the 49ers vs Jaguars game and explain why the 49ers potentially have a quarterback issue. Then they discuss the job security of Kyle Shanahan, Jim Harbaugh, and Bill Belichick.
