Tallest FOF 2K7 player?

Best thread title I could think of to get this thing kicked off.

So I was just going through training camp in a test SP save I have when I discovered this QB on my team.

Seriously? No passing lanes needed Oline, just block thanks. *my paint skills are the l33t.

Almost certainly a human-created draft file.

Ah...didn't think about that.

Looking at IHOF the tallest player is 6'9"

I just ran a couple of queries on the entire league history of several leagues, giving us 120+ years of history and I feel quite confident that using game-generated drafts from FOF2K4 and FOF2K7, the range of possible heights is 5'6" to 6'9". Well over 100 players showed up at those two heights, but not a single one any taller or shorter.

Steve Brigham is a DE in the IFL that I wasn't sure what the heck to do with because of his height. I wsa thinking of moving him to DT, but thought I didn't need one.

He stands at a solid 6'8"

Yes, it affects position switches. Not sure beyond that.

I want to say Jim said height matters for QBs, WRs and CBs, IIRC.

Pretty sure someone said it doesn't matter for DBs.

I thought Jim explicitly said that it did matter for CBs (don't remember about safeties).

Wasn't there something how most positions, you want players to get to their target weight - but some (can't remember which), you are looking for BMI?
