BringBackFergy Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 So I guess hand size is important for QB’s and WR’s. What about shoe size. Is it indicative of a lengthy career? Does a longer shoe give a player/person better overall power and performance.? Should our team scouts start measuring draft eligible players and free agent’s shoes to gauge their likelihood of success as a player (better stability on the field, greater square inch coverage on the turf for better grip and cutting ability)? Just my thoughts on this subject and thinking about doing an expose on my next cable sports show next Saturday. Feel free to discuss. 1 6 1
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Bravo. Well done! Bigger feet make it easier for linemen to step on when getting pushed back.
K D Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 They like big hands but small feet. The bigger the feet the more dorky you look running. Exhibit A:
Marv's Neighbor Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 It's not important on this board. As Prince sang; "Act your age, not your shoe size!" 2

I know during his 2 years here, Rex was personally taking pictures of all the draft eligible players feet when they came in on their visits. I'm not sure if that policy left with him or not, though.

Domdab99 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 You know what big shoes mean, right? ....big feet.
formerlyofCtown Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 They say that shoe size thing is a myth, but hand size may correlate. Oh that's not what you mean, sorry.
ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Nobody talks about it much, but ear hole size is really important for a QB. When the stadium is rockin' and rollin' against the Patriots at home on Monday night this season, do you want our fate to be decided by a rookie QB with a small ear hole who can't understand the play call from the sidelines on 4th and 3 down 4 points with less than a minute to play? It won't be much fun at the game if everybody has to stop booing the Patriots and complaining about how blind Walt Coleman is so that Mr. Tiny Ear Hole can hear better. Just my 2 drachma.
#34fan Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Football just prefers BIG... You gotta be big SOMEWHERE to play this sport... Big hands, big feet, big arms, big legs, big heart, big ego... You need an overgrown _______ to play in the NFL... Fill in the blank appropriately.
first_and_ten Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 I don't believe that any studies have been done on length of career/performance based on one's foot size.. Is a person's speed affected by or improved by foot size? If I was to guess, I would think only feet that are unusually big or small would have any affect on performance.
K-9 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Shoe size is a critical if often ignored factor for QBs. A bigger foot is much more effective for kicking the asses of underperforming linemen and receivers.
