2010 NFL Draft: Round 2?


I personally hope and pray the Browns don't pick Jimmy Clausen as is speculated in this mock draft of round 2 in this link.

A much better choice might be Colt McCoy or Vladimir Ducasse.

UPDATE: The Browns grab Colt McCoy in with their first pick in round 3. I can only say "fantastic" first that such a great player dropped in our hands in round 3, and second that we actually grabbed him. Colt fits very nicely into the West Coast offense. I like his leadership, athletic skills and short passing game accuracy. The scouts say he lacks a cannon for an arm but so did Joe Montana and Brian Sipe. If this guy can dominate in the short passing game, it will give him the margin he needs to be enough of a threat long.

Here is what one scout actually has to say about Colt:


STRENGTHS
McCoy is a natural leader with high character. Played with a lot of intelligence in Texas’ system which he mastered. Was extremely productive. Possesses a quick release. Displays great accuracy in the short passing game and puts the ball in a position to set up his receivers for run after the catch. Has the foot-speed to avoid the rush and buy extra time.
WEAKNESSES
McCoy lacks a cannon for an arm. Can fit the ball into spots on intermediate routes at times but will struggle with the deep ball. Release point is a little low. Needs to improve his accuracy on long passes down the field and toward the sideline.
