I can't really see any advantages to having a Tall HB vs a Short HB in GLB other then a small "bonus" in the Passing Game.

Thoughts?

Height could potentially affect the Stiff Arm and Dive for Yardage SAs as a taller player would be able to stretch out further...

Shorter Players play a little faster, I was on a team that had a 6'3" RB and a 5'11" RB both had the same stats and the Shorter of the two was making cuts a lot faster, but was fumbling more. So bigger RB's fumble less, but aren't as shifty.

Short guys are quick. Light guys are quick. Tall guys are easier to throw to and they see the field better. Heavy guys just have more power. Think of body size as being a compliment to speed/agility/strength/jumping/vision.

But honestly, I've never really seen much out of being short or tall. But being lighter does appear to make you quicker comparing my FS to other guys that have identical attributes but are heavier.
