Outstanding test you did and good summery of the outcome. I think maybe an out route or goaline fade should be able to tell if "size matters" in this application. I know a big TE vs a small DB is a real world match up now that weight differance is involved. I wounder if that mechanic would be any differant.

I've starting throwing quick fades to a 6'4 WR and 6'6 TE in my current dynasty and in general, yes, the taller players have an advantage if it is a jump ball situation. I consider it a sound strategy though and an improvement over some previous games where height really didnt matter. I havent seen it as a game breaking advantage.

I've also noticed my 200+ WR will break more tackles than the smaller ones, so it seems like size does play a part now.

Wonder how much the Jump rating plays into it

Re: Tall wide receivers advantage

Excellent question! Why don't you do some testing with a created player and give us some results. Us out and goal line jump balls to give us some results.

Now this could actually play into who we recruit.

I use A&M in my dynasty neither big 6'5 Mike Evans nor 6'6 Ricky Seals ever wins a jump ball. Those mugs rarely jump for the fade either. I always user control my catches so I've been blaming myself.
