NFL- The Cleveland Brown could cut Colt McCoy

by Stephen Lars on Aug.27, 2010, under Football

The name is got to ring a bell. Particularly if you enjoy betting on the NCAA Football, and either like or hate the Texas Longhorns. Colt McCoy is among the most consecrated college quarterbacks in the NCAA history. Not only has he received most every distinction possible, he is the winningest quarterback in college. Still, there is a chance he might just be one more of the many summer camp casualties. He might not make the cut, and that is just sad. It would certainly sign a powerful downfall from his years in college.

Many fans and sports reporter alike had said that McCoy lacked the physical build and the technique required to play with the big boys in the NFL. It would seem as if their predictions are right. Some, Frank Cooney among them, criticized his style. Colt McCoy made most of his completions firing mostly from a shotgun. He also has a low release points and if memory doesn’t fail us, he really was not capable of throwing a good, powerful, fastball. And those seem to be key factors in the NFL.

If you take into consideration that not only did he not finish his season strong, but suffered an elbow injury in his last game, then it becomes a bit more evident why the Cleveland Browns might be waiting to really bring him in. Still, one can’t help to be a bit shocked to know that McCoy might get cut on his first season as a pro.

It seems that the coaching staff in Cleveland has been more impressed with the performance of veteran newcomers like Seneca Wallace and Jake Delhomme. Success in college is no guarantee for success among the pros. But we are talking about a player that managed to guide the Longhorns to an NCAA record 45 wins, and held a season long best average for completions back in 2008.

Before his last game injury, McCoy was expected to enter the draft among the top 10 picks. Ups and downs, and somewhat of a change of fate, had him enter the NFL Draft in the third round. Sure, has has sign a $5 million 4-year contract with the Browns. But he might not make the cut, and not be part of the Cleveland Brows 53-man rooster.
