Colt McCoy’s Pro Day

by Coltrane

Colt McCoy had an outstanding Pro Day on Thursday.  At least one observer thought he looked better than likely #1 overall pick Sam Bradford.

Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy said McCoy answered any questions about his injury.

“I thought he did a very good job,” McCarthy said.

McCarthy was in Norman, Okla., on Monday to watch former Sooners quarterback Sam Bradford, who might be the first overall pick. Like McCoy, Bradford had a shoulder injury last season. Bradford completed all but one of his passes in front of the scouts.

“I liked this workout better. I thought Colt was challenged more in his workout as far as the types of throws,” McCarthy said. “Sam was very accurate, but Sam’s workout was very controlled. He didn’t do as much movement.”

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said it would be expected for McCoy to complete all of his passes.

“This is not real football, this is a workout,” Carroll said. “His footwork was really good.”

Carroll rated McCoy’s arm strength, a question mark for some scouts, as “solid.”
