Colt McCoy Signs With Browns For $4.96 Million: Today the Cleveland Browns locked up their quarterback of the future by signing 3rd round pick Colt McCoy to a four-year deal worth $4.96 million with a $751,000 signing bonus. The Texas Longhorn product was a first-team All-American as a senior and considered a steal by many NFL picks experts with the Browns selecting McCoy with the 85th overall selection of the 2010 NFL draft. McCoy is not expected to see much of the field in his 1st NFL season but will battle Seneca Wallace for 2nd string behind starting QB Jake Delhomme.


The 2010 Cleveland Browns 2011 Superbowl Odds have the Browns at +12500 on The NFL Betting Moneyline at SPORTSBETTING.COM.

NFL Predictions Analysis:
Jake Delhomme is the Cleveland Browns quarterback for now but McCoy is defiantly the franchise signal-caller of the future. Scouts are split on their opinions of McCoy. Some scouts think that Colt could be a solid NFL starter for years with his off the charts intangibles and good field smarts. Others think that the physically limited McCoy (6’2” 210) will have trouble being anything more than a journeyman with his below-average arm-strength an inability to avoid the rush. The 2010 Cleveland Browns NFL Futures Win Total is at 5.5 Wins with the Under at -125.

The answer to that question will be answered in due time but our NFL picks staff thinks he should be pretty good.  Arm-strength is one of the most overrated aspects of being an NFL QB while accuracy is far more important. McCoy is an accurate passer that reads defenses well and those two factors should carry him to a lengthy and successful NFL career.
