I think most people don't realize, that Darrelle Revis was under 6 feet tall.  He was also 5'11".

 

For context: here are there combine numbers

 

Revis: 5'11.5"     32.5" arms     8.25 hands      

Weight 204lbs.

 

 

Mad Max:  5'11"      31" arms      8.75 hands

Weight 183lbs,

 

 

Height/length is not a problem.  The big difference of course, is weight.  204lbs for a corner, is pretty big and in the upper tier.

Mad Max stated that he's already back up to about 190lbs, and went down in weight, to maximize his 40 time, which we all know was 4.28.  Revis did not run.

 

That being said, he doesn't need to be a 200lb corner.  If he's in that 190-193lbs range, it would be perfect, in my opinion.  He's still a young guy and won't get that full grown man strength until he's about 25.

 

It's like in H.S, you don't go for the chick that's already thick, you have to properly project.

Tiny nit to pick but Hairston is 5'11.25".  And I looked at the Pro Bowl CBs from last year and 5'11" was the median height.
