Quote:Darrell Green is 5'8", and he did ok for himself (understatement of the year) for a very long time. I wouldn't go so far as to compare Hargreaves to Green, who was one of the greatest defensive backs in NFL history, but I do believe that regardless of scheme, if a player is good enough, you make a fit for them. Hargreaves might just be good enough, even if he does come in at 5'9" or 5'10".

There have been plenty of very short and very good CBs, but I don't think any of them have been drafted in the top 10. Fair or not that's just how it's been forever. My biggest worry for VH3 was how often he gets nicked up (because he is impressively physical for his size to be fair), but that problem will probably only be exacerbated in the bigger, stronger, faster NFL. Him having to leave the field for a series here and there darn near every game because he is nursing some ailment will be very frustrating.

 

I was already for VH3 on the back end of the Jalen/Jaylon/Jack/VH3 tier, and if he really does measure in under 5'10" I will probably have to move him from that tier into the next one down...which probably means perfect range for where the Jags will be picking if they finish the season as well as they could/should.
