Vol D backs brace for big test.

Champ Bailey is 6-foot
Ty Law is 5'11
Deltha Oneal is 5'11
Nathan Vasher is 5'10
Deangelo Hall is 5'10
Ronde Barber is 5'10

each of those guys were 2006 pro-bowlers...so, no, 5'11 is not a concern for a corner.

Over six foot corners were just a fad in the NFL for a few years, when they allowed a lot of contact between receiver and DB, and size was a premium. The college game, IMO, mirrored that, playing taller players at CB. Now it's more about atheleticism, so smaller guys are the premium.
