So this is something I've been wondering for a few seasons now. Does height matter for skill positions like WR? For instance, if I take a 6'6" TE and convert him to a WR, will he have an advantage over a 5'11" CB?

Height is used to determine whether the player can reach the ball (because the flight path of the ball is calculated in 3D) so yes, it does give him an advantage over a short CB if the ball is higher.

So does that mean that a QB, with say a high intelligence,... knows to throw the ball higher to a 6'6" receiver?

One thing I've always wondered is why aren't there taller natural WRs in the game? The tallest I've ever seen in the game are 6'1/6'2 guys but in the NFL there are plenty of guys that are 6'3-6'5

I wondered this too. I'm find turning former TEs into big WRs if they have the skill, but I agree that there should be some natural one generated in the 6'4-6" range.

Put a TE there and train him.

Tried to help? Haha what? The op talked about changing TEs to WRs so obviously everybody here knew you could do that lol changing players positions is pretty basic, man. You were just trying to be smart.
