Based on this pic I'd say 5'11"

He measured at 5'11" about 6-9 months ago. I can't remember where I saw it but know I read it. So I think it's reasonable but not definite to believe he gained another inch. Like I wrote elsewhere, I'm more concerned about him gaining muscle mass to take the pounding than an inch or two of height. Kid is electric with the ball in his hands, he'll be fine.

Still looked at least 2 inches shorter than Cam but like you said its not the height its the mass he needs to add. DC is already taller than Kyler, Manziel, and Deriq King were and they had 0 issues in college. DC should aim to get to 175-180 by time he gets to the Gables. He looks to be 160-165 right now.
 

3. Dereon Coleman – Miami​

Dereon Coleman‘s Elite 11 regional performance confirms the claim that he has one of the most explosive arms in the country. The sheer ballistics he generates for his size are unbelievable. The football is screaming when it comes off his hand. Plus, his time to throw is outstanding. Coleman’s natural whip and arm elasticity allow him to get the ball up and out quicker than almost anybody. Not to mention, he’s a quality athlete. Ball placement and urgency in his footwork are the main areas for improvement we saw from the regional workout. Some throws got away from him while on the move, which could be attributed to his lower half being all over the place. He has room for polishing when it comes to his accuracy in general, but with some refinement in his footwork and mechanics, he has every chance to make a statement at the Elite 11 Finals. – Cody Bellaire
 
That was me.

He’s not 6 feet tall.

Hope he performs well at the opening, which means less than nothing.
Almost every starting QB for the top teams in the county was an Elite 11 kid....Just making it there in itself means something...
