Does small hand size measurement hurt Senior Bowl prospect Drew Lock?

In terms of potential value, the weigh-in at the Senior Bowl may have dealt Missouri’s Drew Lock a blow, as the quarterback prospect’s hand measured in at 9 inches, smaller than his entire position group and on the low end of most NFL signal-callers.

But, despite the less than stellar news for Lock, the gunslinger slung the ball around the field Tuesday in the drizzling rain and cold, said “Pritchard and Cecil” co-host Cecil Lammey.

“In rain, in drizzle, in wet, cold conditions here in Mobile, (Alabama), Drew Lock was gripping it and ripping it down the field,” Lammey told “The Drive” on Tuesday. “(He’s) clearly the best quarterback here.”

By comparison, Lock’s hand size is smaller than Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum (9 1/8), which has been a knock on the passer.

However, across the spectrum of NFL quarterbacks lies a variety of hand sizes — Aaron Rodgers (9 3/8) and Philip Rivers (9 ¼) come in on the smaller side while Drew Brees (10 ¼) and Russell Wilson (10 ¼) sit on the larger.

Even the two quarterbacks in this year’s Super Bowl — Jared Goff (9) and Tom Brady (“enormous” per Atlanta Falcons executive Scott Pioli) — vary widely in terms of hand size.

“I don’t think it matters. I don’t think it’s a big deal,” said “The Drive” co-host DMac on Tuesday.

And in the end, it didn’t seem to matter for Lock on Tuesday.

“Did he fumble any snaps? No, that was (Duke quarterback) Daniel Jones twice. Did he throw any picks? Were the passes falling out of his hands or were they dying as they went down the field. Nope. Not at all,” Lammey said. “Drew Lock had no problem throwing in inclement weather conditions today in Mobile.”
