Fromm's hands measured even smaller, just under 9 inches. He'll also go undrafted (or should).

This raises a disturbing possibility. Has there ever been a Heisman winner who went undrafted?

Of the 83 Heisman winners eligible for drafting, 56 have been selected in the first round. Twenty-two of them were taken with the first overall pick and 39 within the first five selections. Just four Heisman winners ended up not being drafted (two of them had military obligations, one went to the NBA and one had multiple knee injuries that affected his draft stock).

Charlie Ward gave the NFL the bird.

It was well known the NFL gave him the snub. No NFL team is spending a pick on a 6ft QB with below average arm strength. At best, he would have been a 4th round pick. More likely, he would have gone in rounds 5-7. He made the right call. He played 12 years in the NBA. He wouldn't have last but 2-3 at most as a backup in the NFL. Oh, and fukk the clowns.

Werent you just on this guy's nuts and calling him the best QB in history... even though Urban saw him as a career backup?

Now he is going undrafted?

I’ll have to think about that. I certainly don’t want to come across as inconsistent.

From the article:

‘Reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs, whose hand size registered at 9 1/4 inches when he attended the combine in 2017, offered Burrow words of encouragement.

"My small hands are doing alright so far....i believe in ya," Mahomes tweeted, with three crying laughing emojis.’

Looks like he’s completely uckfed.

Im gonna be honest. There's something about this kid that says bust to me. He's too cocky and sure of himself. Seems real narcissistic. He thinks his :kiffin: smells like fresh roses. It will be interesting seeing how he handles being surrounded by guys who suck as opposed to guys who are better than everyone they line up against... and a coaching staff that's probably just as bad instead of one of the best. I think he's in for a rude awakening and dont think hes nearly as tough and resilient as he believes himself to be.

Great, now I've gotta measure my hands to find out if I got a little dick.

As a rule of thumb, if your fingers don’t touch when you grab it, don’t assume it’s big.
