Agreed. McCoy is certainly not the weakest arm in the draft.

Although i visit some of the site you mentioned i only do so because they have links and data compiled in one place. But a lot of those guys have no more scouting credentials then you or I.

And McGuire at Walters gives some of the least professional 'scouting' reports that i've seen.
Same here. I agree with McGuire's Clausen breakdowns and the reasoning behind it, but he does go a bit overboard on some of the negative comments on certain players.

I feel like we're side-tracking this thread into a QB discussion but...when i was snowed in last week i looked at alot of youtube cuts ups and downloaded some games of the Bradford, Claussen and McCoy.

And i don't see a huge difference in their skillsets.
You've seen my opinions of Clausen so I won't rehash, but I agree with you on Bradford vs. McCoy. Bradford has more prototypical NFL size and a stronger arm, but their skillsets are similar otherwise.

I broke down the Texas Vs UCF game and McCoy makes some of those NFL throws that people are looking for and if you look at the other game shorts you'll see he makes a few of those 'stick' throws every game.
Good stuff on the breakdown, I had to mute the speaker while watching the clip....the background music was killing me. LOL

The one thing I notice about McCoy (and clips of Bradford also) is that they are often throwing to wide open receivers, that won't happen at the next level near as often
