A catchable ball? If it hits their hands, it is a catchable ball.  @ishwargill So , the coaching staff saw a qb that couldn’t make decisions, but they failed to notice that Greg Little was second in the league in drops and the Browns led the league in drops?

Although mock drafts are all speculation, where are you basing this statement from? Shurmur was able to make a very productive QB out of the rookie Sam Bradford, but he needs a guy with the right pedigree, the right pieces. In today's football, 1st round rookie QBs start.   Yeah, Colt McCoy is not fully to blame for last year's mishaps, and there were a lot of dropped passes from a rookie WR, but the coaching staff also saw a QB who lacked decision making, scrambled out of the pocket at a seconds chance, had limited vision, and didn't throw a very catchable ball. They also so a QB who has been injured for multiple games both seasons.   I love Colt McCoy, I think he is a standup guy with great intangibles, such as leadership ability and work ethic. But Weeden is a standup guy with the same intangibles, plus he has the skillset to be a much more effective QB at a pro level. In fact, Colt Mccoy is so lovable, I really think he should leave the browns because he will create a divided locker room because players will still want to support him. I know Joe Thomas loves blocking for Colt. I also know if Weeden struggles, browns fans will cry for the return of Colt, and we all remember the flip flopping of Derek Anderson versus Brady Quinn...you just can't play when no one knows who is starting...  @brwns_fan weeden was not supposed to be a 3rd round, 2nd round reach, he was a 1-2 round draft choice, and if he was younger, possibly a top 10 prospect.
