    Post edited cheers, but yes you could be right might end up with both McCoy's on there roster

  • For those wondering, he threw about 60 passes. He completed all of them.

    He threw the whole route tree on the left and right. He threw from 3 and 5 step drops and rollouts to simulate the pull away from center.

    12 throws were over 40 yards. Mike Mayock commented that his deep touch was very good.

    Pete Carroll termed his arm strength "solid". Gil Brandt commented that his footwork was excellent.

    Todd McShay thought he was average. Then again, Todd McShay has been knocking everyone not named Bradford so I kind of wonder if this guy is really believable.

  • So what kind of shakeup would it be if the Rams dont draft Bradford??? Everyone keeps saying Washington would draft Bradford if he falls to 4 but i have my doubts about that. I see Buffalo being the darkhorse trading up with Kansas City or Seattle. It would be smart for Cleveland to trade down later in the first and pick up Clausen when he drops down to mid first.

  • I'm not sure about McCoy. He's been described as a poor man's Kyle Orton. Enough said.

  • McCoy has absolutely no resemblance to Kyle Orton. What you be smoking?

    He's also been compared to Drew Brees. 'nuff said...

    McCoy doesn't have the arm that Brees has. If Holmgren thinks McCoy can be the quarterback of the future, then I trust him. Draft day(s) will the very interesting.

    Do you have a source for this comparison?

    yes it's called tv. and if you get it (before midnight tonight) with internet and phone it's only $39 a month. ZOWEE!!!!

    Well, I've seen both Brees and Colt throw in person. There isn't that much difference.

  • Is it just me or do most of you not have that "Colt" confidence?

    He's really not shown me much and ever since he bailed in the championship game I've really lost faith in the guy. Hell I feel Tebow has more moxy and fight than this guy.

    I just don't see his "competitive" side. He's soft.

    I still like Pike in the 3rd and wouldn't hate Tebow in the 2nd. Tebow's a winner and a fighter and that will translate in the NFL.

    I really don't think Mike would spend a first round pick on any of these QB's. ESPECIALLY since he got Delhomme and Wallace. C'mon ~THINK!

    I'm not saying he's first round material. I trust Holmgren to decide.

    To say he "bailed" suggests to me that you know nothing of medicine and to say he's soft clearly indicates that you probably haven't seen more than that BCS Championship.

    Colt McCoy has started 54 straight games. He's found ways to win. He's led his team to fourth quarter comebacks even when he didn't have his best stuff. Is his game flawed? Probably so. Is he a work in progress? Definitely. Is he soft? Hell no. Colt McCoy never gave up on a game ever. Anyone who suggests he didn't want to come back in the BCS Championship is really full of $hit. The kid grew up dreaming of leading UT to a championship and came back to school for his senior year to do so. To imply that he bailed on that game is preposterous.

    😳 Clausen..? REALLY? Clausen...? C'mon man!

    I really think we should stay away from that kid.

    I really don't want us to trade down either. Remember last year's draft? We passed on Clay Jr., Maualuga, & Raji...Remember how it felt passing on those guys?ALL those guys could have helped us in Cleveland this year...We've got what..12 picks now? We need to load up this year! We've got the cash, let's get the players! Let's play to win this year!

    Let's get some top tier picks who can help us NOW!

    Well you got me...I'm NOT a doctor. But I'll wager you're not one either. In this AP artictle printed just yesterday:

    http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/articl...FFEzyQD9EPRVC01

    It states that his arm was numb due to a pinched nerve. If you watched the whole game it appeared he had a full range of motion before the evening was through. True maybe I haven't seen enough film on the kid and shouldn't base my judgement solely on the performance of that one game. But from what I have seen of him, he played behind a talented line with talented recievers and I've really never seen him take a big hit until that game.

    Ask yourself this....If you really dreamed of leading your favorite college team to a BCS championship...and you really were a football player....wouldn't you leave your left nut out there for the everlasting glory?

    a) Yes, I am a doctor

    😎 Colt McCoy's injury was a stretched brachial plexus. That doesn't mean he can't move his shoulder. The brachial plexus innervates the arm and carries both motor and sensory fibers. I was at the game and I watched him on the sideline in front of me.

    c) Mack Brown refused to jeopardize him by putting him back in. He said there was NO way he was going back in no matter how much he begged and my source told me he begged plenty.

    Yeah...Really? Well I'm the f#%king pope....You think you can take time from your busy schedule of seeing patients and perusing "The Browns Board" to write me a perscription for bullshit in my ear?

    And if you were at the game you really know what a puss willer he is.

    Oh...And stew on this...The backup put up 21.....The backup.

    I wouldn't waste my time on you. You're nothing but an agenda-filled troll. The backup putting 21 on Bama has nothing to do with Colt McCoy. You're just pissed because your theory of him wussing out isn't supported by any evidence and now you're crying.

  • I don't see QB in the first round. I could see Teebow in the 2nd and i wouldn't hate that idea as much as I used to think I would. I think the guy is a winnner and someone who works hard and would probably be a winner in the NFL.

    The "agenda" here sir is discussing what I feel is in the best interest of the Browns. I have my opinion as I'm sure you have yours. The point about the backup that you failed to see is that you could plug in a QB at Texas with the talent that they have and put up 21 on the NCAA champs. I feel McCoy hasn't been tested. By your login name I assume you watch quite a bit of UT football and you have a right to disagree with me....Just don't fill me full of crap along the way. I say he lacks guts...I'm entitled to my opinion. This is America last time I checked.

    If you haven't watched him play through adversity and injury then you have no clue as to what kind of guts he does or doesn't have...but you're right. We'll just agree to disagree. You're entitled to that.
