Tweet/s Lattimore commenting on Kyler Murray's size (build) on draft day (1 Viewer)

That’s him on the end of the front row standing next to 5’ 9” Marquise Brown.

Ooh - he's a clever one, he is.

He put his helmet on the seat, so he'd stand 1 foot closer to the camera to make it seem that he was taller...

I can’t figure out the group in that picture.

I see guys from multiple rounds, multiple positions, multiple conferences.....what grouping is that?

Oh, and no Saint?

Yeah, it's weird. At first it looked like all skill players, but then Devin Bush is right in there on the second row.

Maybe it's the first round pics. We didn't have one, did we?

Edit:. I can't even see the pic right now. I'm just guessing.

I think that’s the rookie showcase. They mostly like skill position players. Since we didn’t have a 1st round pick and our 2nd was a center, we were unlikely to have a player there.

lmao look at how Murray is the only person in that picture who crept up to the back of the seat-back in front of him. Everyone else is backed up to the seats. He's also slightly leaning forward. You know that's a little perspective trick he learned awhile back, and he's been doing it his whole life to make himself look an inch or two taller in pics.

Whatever he did, it came up short.

It's the NFLPA Rookie Premiere photo:

Two of the Raiders nine rookie draft picks were at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena for the annual NFLPA Rookie Premiere. Not coincidentally, they were both offensive skill position players, because those...

Can we all agree that these Murray jokes are pretty shallow? What a QB has between his ears dwarfs his physical size in terms of importance to their long-term success.

It’s a pic from the NFLPA Rookie Premiere. A sports card company picks the players who get to go. They base the invites on which rookies they think will be the hottest among the card and memorabilia collectors.

That makes sense. It's basically all offensive skill players plus Bosa and Bush, who were probably the two most hyped defensive players.

The defensive players and linemen really got the short end of the stick. I bet they feel slighted.

I think our tall Cb is gonna give him problems and will probably try to play man coverage and pressure him into seeing ghost.

 

[LonghornSaintsFan]

He said it when Kyler was being drafted. Not really pregame trash talk.

I see

And he is 5'10" I mean he is short but really in the grand scheme of things he isn't that much shorter than Drew, Doug Flutie or Russell Wilson. If those players can make it work than there is no issue for him and he is still taller than your average female height 5'4" and your average male 5'9." So I don't know why people get so hung up on height in his case.

 

[Noble Saint]

With all of this smack talk...I sure hope we beat the ever living short out of them.

 

[Jimmie]

According to the NFL scouting combine Drew is.

Well he ain’t. Nor is Murray 5’10
