Can someone please help me out I have heard this kid is 5'10, 6'2.5 and 6'4.
I think it was listed on the Nike camp that he was the 6'2.5.
Most sites/articles list him at 6' 4" but he measured at 6' 2.4" at the
AA combine in January - Although he could have grown since then.
Here is a pic of him standing next to Marcus Freeman from Feb. (he has a few inches on Marcus)
Orton on the right

he ran from 4.82 to 4.9 (electronically timed) at
the AA combine - this was the middle of the pack of WR's/TE's
The AA ratings are NFL standard ratings and they are always much higher than you will see from other camps- where Greg is generally being rated at a 4.5 40.

The 2004 U.S. Army National Combine Presented by Reebok took place on January 1st and 2nd 2004 in San Antonio, TX at the Alamodome. 300 of the nation's underclassmen gathered to battle it out to see who is the country's top underclassman athlete as well as who were the top players at each position. The battles were fierce as athletes from 34 different states arrived at the Alamodome to compete in football specific drills and tests of speed and strength. Scout Camp an organization who runs combines for the NFL was on hand to measure and test the athletes. Garrett Shea, Football Director at SportsLink stated, "The U.S. Army National Combine is unique in the sense that it provides athletes with test results that are comparable to those of NFL standards. Unlike any other combine in the country the athletes who are in attendance can compare their times and results to any NFL athlete who attends the NFL Combine in Indianapolis for the most accurate comparison. I have attended a lot of combines where the athletes are tested and the results they are given are inflated. The quality of the testing results at the U.S. Army National Combine are held to the same standard as the NFL combine. From a recruiting perspective a college coach can not ask for a better combine to evaluate an athlete's true ability." For The U.S. Army National Combine Results click on the positions above.
