Bill, I’m just doing my part to help you feel better about the shorter-but-not-too-short QBs. ;)
Would be great if both Haener and Rattler develop and the team has two promising prospects. You and I agree that odds are stacked against developmental QBs, though. Really tough position and most won’t make it long term.
Nothing really wrong with preferring a prototype - in an ideal scenario, who wouldn’t - but I think it gets overlooked just how many QBs succeed who fall below the average in height. Some observers make more of height than seems warranted.
