MJS Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 I'm tempted to say it is the most meaningless, useless stat in all of football.

Grip strength is why rock climbers always seem to win America Ninja Warrior. Not just the big "strong" athletes. Yup, as someone with hands on the smaller side I always trained my grip strength. Doing deadlifts without straps always, indoor rock climbing, and farmers walk.

#34fan Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Ten inches and some change... -That's what Russell Wilson has.... Helps directional control a lot... and helps the QB hang onto the rock when he's on the run... Ideally, I'd like my QB to have at least 91/2...

That's more important I think. Don't you agree??

I personally think a bigger-size hand compliments both... You look at guys who can pull the ball down and take off in traffic.. A QB needs a tight grip in case the pocket suddenly gets crowded.
