very curious about his height and hand size. From what i've heard and read people seem to think he'll be around 6'1" 1/8th. not horrible but i do hope he's closer to 6'2"

Also interesting is Dysert is rated at 6'4", but in the group photo him and geno look the same height, or close to it

When you see Dysert in pads, on the field with other players, like at the Senior Bowl, he doesn't look 6'4"...

I think he measured at 6'3" at the senior bowl.

I understand what you are saying, in theory, but you are saying that the defense stacked the box because we didn't pass the ball long. That's not true. Teams stacked the box because he couldn't complete a pass that far.

No, that's not necessarily what I'm saying. I'm talking about probabilities.

While throwing it short decreases somewhat the chances of something BAD happening, when you have a QB like Cassel, it also doesn't increase the chances of something GOOD happening.

And if teams are stacking the box, that improves the probabilities on the long pass. At the very least, you catch the DBs off-guard and they have to hold or PI...

I think the probabilities show that throwing it far means you have less of a chance to complete a pass and just as much or slightly more of a chance of getting picked.

We may have to agree to disagree here, brotha.

A complete pass isn't necessarily a positive - that should be evident from simply watching the games. You still have to get the ball beyond the yard marker...

I understand that. But if you take into account that if your chucking the ball down-field with an extremely inaccurate passer all together, when you decrease the chance for a completion by going for a longer throw, the 10 yards is harder to get when you only have two attempts, instead of 3, to gain them.

Can't wait to see Tyler Wilson's Hall of Fame induction ceremony in the future. Maybe Geno can give a speech.

Geno will be joining the Hall of Fame the same year as David Garrard.
