Short guys will not become the trend.
Like I said, I don't think short will ever be the trend.

But with spread concepts becoming more prevalent, I think the league will become more accepting if you will, of guys like Alex Smith who aren't 6"6 pocket passers.

I think guys like Tannehill and Newton and Kap become more the norm. Ej being the latest case. There will probably always be a place for a Manning but I dunno if it will be the ideal anymore.

Kinda feel like Brad Smith was just before his time
