    I love your post, Earl. I only doubt the "humble guy" part. Maybe I'm confusing Colt with Clausen, but Mary Kay had an interview this past week in the PD and Colt didn't seem particularly modest.

    Coach Holmgren: "I made the decision to keep Eric [Mangini] and every day I know I did the right thing."

      Congratulations to the Cleveland Browns for drafting an incredibly stand-up guy... As a Texas Longhorns fan, I've had the pleasure of watching Colt play for the past 4 years; two of which were from our home in Columbus, OH... We moved back to Austin in 2008..

      For the Professor... you are most definately confusing McCoy with Clausen... In every one of the interviews I've seen, McCoy is humble, down-to-earth and a class act..

      I'm sure I'm not the first, and I won't be the last Longhorn fan to be newly registered on this board... That's how much we appreciate Colt's contribution to the game.

      Hook 'em, and Go Browns!

        When it comes to being humble and having great character, I look at both Bradford and McCoy. These two young men have class and are going to do well.

            Colt McCoy is the real deal and we got him on the cheap i agree he is a bit of a project but so is bradford as the rams are going to find out and he isnt nearly as massive of a project as tebow is going to be for denver...colt puts the icing on an otherwise successful but drab draft cake...way to go brownies!

            We have been rebuilding since 1964, Why stop now? GO BROWNS!

              Now that the hysteria in my house has died down and the phone has stopped ringing....

              Michael....welcome. The more I think about it the more I think (and you may agree) that one of the best things about this kid is that I've NEVER seen him give up in a game. Even when he was sidelined at the BCS Championship he was in peoples' faces screaming at 'em and going over stuff with Garrett. He'll do what it takes for his team to win.

              I agree about the keys here being that the Browns got a great kid with a value pick and that he has time to develop. Bradford is gonna get killed.

              There is no QB controversy here. It moved to Denver where the QuinnBots can duke it out with the TebowFreaks.

                GOOD pick... I really like McCoy. Not sure I will "Like" the long term results , if he start whipping my boys. Good Job getting him. A couple other picks look iffy but Maybe Holmgren has serious inside scoop. You guys are on track...

                  LOL! I cant wait..

                  Colt will be fine as long as we can get him some protection on the right side + we are still in aneed of a WR.

                    Eh...Lumbergh is probably on some Cardinals message board bashing Matt Leinart right now.

                      I just hope Delhomme does well so fans arent crying for Colt a quarter threw the season. I dont want another QB controversy, let the coaches do there job and decide who should play and who shouldnt and cheer for whoever they put on the field.

                      LOVE...LOVE...LOVE this pick! I agree with you 100 percent and I think the coaches will let him sit and learn for a year or two like the Eagles did with Kolb. Holmgren said as much last night. I thought they were going to get him in the second when they traded up, but I was extatic when we landed him in the third. He is a class act, a smart kid, and a good football player. He reminds me a lot of Brees. If the coaches handle this right (and I think they will this time) I think Colt has the potential to be the best QB from this draft. Go Browns!!!!
