Colt McCoy Texas NFL 2010 Draft

Ourlads Scouting Services LLC take on Colt McCoy:


Will be a four-year starter in the Longhorn spread offense attack. In 2008 he set the NCAA single season record for completion percentage at an unbelievable 76.7 percent. Was the team leader in rushing with 561 yards and 11 touchdowns. Plays with good pass protection and a clean pocket. Steps into his throws. Accurate on the move on roll out and dash type patterns. Rolls away from pressure in the red zone. Throws an inordinate amount of horizontal ball control pass routes. Plays a lot of pitch and catch with wide open receivers. Rarely does he laser the ball through a tight window in the defense. Good height for the position and has functional playing speed and quickness. A right handed passer with good athletic ability and a quick release. As mentioned previously, ultra accurate on short and medium patterns. A tough kid that can take a hit. Shows good leadership, consistency, and discipline with the football. Makes solid decisions. Has a natural feel in the passing game to anticipate and time up his passes. Arm strength to make a big play in the red zone when the window of opportunity is small is still questionable.
