Colt McCoy ?

Colt brennan is who this story is about. I guess someone must have convinced him that he realy had no shot in the NFL because that 33 pounds was not muscle weight from the way I heard the story. His hip surgery has also killed any chances he may have had.

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7987234/NFL-draft-Q&A:-Colt-Brennan



He says it was planned weight.

Big difference then. I heard it second hand and was under the impression he was letting himself go.

I just got done reading his write up in the Scouting News NFL Draft. They had him as one of the smartest QB's in this years draft. Always making the right decisions and incredible at reading defenses. But he appeared very small. Almost looked like a High School QB lined up behind center. Maybe he finally got some serious workouts and nutrition facts. But I'll tell you what..........The mental part of the game is something you either have or you don't. I've written several threads here where I've said Colt is NO BRAINER in the 4th round if he lasts that long. If Joe Flaco is gone by our turn to draft #32 in the second round , or if we couldn't draft down and get more draft picks to get Joe...........if Colt is available in the later rounds when we pick I think he would be a really wise choice to battle Beck for the eventual starting spot behind McCown.

I would LOVE to see Colt in a Dolphins uniform . I think he has a HUGE upside and the price of a 3-4th rounder is worth the possible returns.

How do you naturally put on 33 lbs of muscle in 3 months?  I don't think so.

When someone teaches you how to carbo load its very possible. Good chance in college he was on a very limited budget and spent many days just eating salads and water. If it was that Fishy people would say so. No way he is going to chance taking anything illegal in this day and age of Steroid policing right before the NFL draft. And no one says it was all Muscle. He was so thin though that Even a bit of Fat wouldn't look bad on his frame. Look at how much weight Rickey Williams lost  . He was like 245 when he was on the Saints. He was down to 185  2 off seasons ago and I believe he is about 210 now. Some Athletes have the ability to change their weight dramatically.

I don't believe for one second that any sport is devoid of performance-enhancing drugs.  Some guys I knew in college, admitted it's been a while, had told me that they are rampant even on the college and high school levels.

I absolutely believe that. That's why its so important for the NFL and MLB to take a stand against them. Right now if you want to stand a chance to get into a college you need to take them just to compete.  But Colt has to know going into the NFL he will be put under a microscope. NFL teams will know how many Hairs he has on his left nut. For him to do anything stupid drugs wise would seal his fate........deservedly so.

I tend to disagree here.  Colt had his chance to prove himself against Georgia and totally bombed.  That Sugar Bowl game, along with the situation at the Combine, hurt his draft stock badly, and nothing he does from here on out can change that. 

I doubt he gets drafted before the sixth round... if he does at all.

He'll get drafted.  Just not as high as some people, including himself were probably once thinking.

Undrafted!? NO way......That's going a bit to far. I say 3rd 4th round, others can say 6th , 7th.......its the draft you never know. But Undrafted is just silly.

Steal in the upper rounds. Book mark this thread.

He was a scholarship athlete so he should have been receiving the NCAA approved athletic training table meals. No salad and water except for an appetizer if you ask me.

Who knows? Maybe he liked being lean in College. But one thing is for sure  , his biggest knock since entering the NFL ring has been his size. His goal since has been to gain weight and he's done it. All I'm saying is that its possible with a change of diet and training habits to do legally and healthy. 

My experience is that, as a player on scholarship even if he lived off campus he still had the option of having meals with the team at the training table/dining hall.

Under the guidance of a trainer on a college weight training program he could have (should have?) put on a lot of weight while at Hawaii.

A high school friend of mine went to college as a 6'8" 220 lb bean pole.  He grew to a 300 lb offensive tackle in his first year or two.  He ended up getting drafted by the Bears.

Who knows for sure? Colt did damn well at his light wieght of 185. Maybe they didn't want him to bulk up. Now that his sights are set on the NFL he could be looking at things differently. I sure don't have a clue. All I am saying is that weight gain is no reason to not like Colt. Mark this Thread..............that Kid will thrive if put into the right offense and given a few weapons.

Plenty of banned substances cannot be tested for, including hGH (human Growth Hormone).

I see Colt as another Jason Gesser.  Did nothing in college but put up Ws and big stats - didn't even get a sniff from the NFL. 

Who cares about testing? The scouts KNOW who is on the juice and who is not. He would be a fool to mess around now.

Nope.......this kid is too smart. First Team that gives him half a chance is gonna be happy with the returns.

I can't help but notice that nobody is mentioning this guy's serious character issues.  He was kicked off the University of Colorado football team (no small accomplishment all by itself) after he trespassed into a coed's room, exposed himself, allegedly fondled her and refused to leave.  His defense was basically that he was drunk. 

I wouldn't want this creep near my nieces, and I certainly don't want him on my team.  I keep thinking of Lawrence Phillips and Cecil Collins when I hear Colt Brennan.   Why do we need repeat those disasters?

Here is a link for more information on this event for any doubters:

The last two posts seem somewhat contradictory....

He is NOT in the same class as those two losers. Not even close. I'm not going to make light of what happened, but its no where in the same realm of what those 2 AHoles did.

Let's take a tally here:  Votes for Colt Brennen: 1  Against : everyone else

He supposedly put on all this muscle/weight while nursing a hip injruy that requires surgery.

I'm cool with that. Just Mark this thread so I can tell you I told you so...........

Oh we will, so we can tell you we told you so when he busts.  ;D

I'd make you a bet , but no one keeps them around here............... ::) :-*

You know I'm not going anywhere.  What bet?  ;D

Lets see What happens after the draft. Where Colt goes will play a big part in his success.  But if he comes here (not holding my breath) we will certainly have something to bet on.

My Prediction is that he goes between Rounds 3-5.   

I'd love for him to do well ... but I see him going undrafted and never starting a game in the NFL. 

I'd be willing to bet that he's drafted by an NFL team by round 6.

no way he doesn't get drafted.he'll have to shake the 'system quarterback' tag,though.

Run to win...........care to put your money where your mouth is? Or are you enjoying that sneaker?  ;D :D

Lets see if he'll honor the bet if he loses..... unlike a certain Pats fan we all know and hate.

Some may not like my opinions here. But When I say something its because I believe it. I never say things for effect to to try and inflame someone. I'm offering Run to Win a chance to prove he means what he says.  >:D

I guess this proves he only says things for effect.  If RTW belived what he said he would man up........... :-*

^ Ladies and gentlemen...a 41 year old.

Sorry, I didn't realize I had stepped on any toes.

I don't suppose a "gentlemen's bet" would satisfy your issues?

That's would be fine. Glad to be back to Football! I just wanted  some clarification so you can't say later you were only kidding.  I know Colt will be gone by the fifth Round. Possibly as early as 3. I doubt Parcells has any interest in him. But he will be on a NFL team by the 5th Rd.

You say he will go undrafted?

If he goes undrafted I was wiling to bet anything from Posting a signature line of your choice or even leaving because you seem to have such a boner for cops.

But.......I can see your not the betting kind and I'm not gonna beat out of you what we already know is true. You just said that because again........you seem to have a problem with me and my profession. (Look at the thread you started in before it was locked recently) . I can link to it if you wish : http://www.thedolphinsmakemecry.com/forums/index.php/topic,10371.0.html

So.........lets just shake hands and let it go already. If some guy gave you a Ticket recently , don't take it out on me.

IAt least I made an impression on you!  ;D

I haven't remembered a thing about you ................. :D

Just out of curiosity, are you, ummm, "vertically challenged"?

 Nope. Not the biggest Mofo on the planet , but a very average (5'11).


As usually I answered your questions 100% honestly and directly as I can. 

Can you try it for a change or do you just want to play games?

Play nice, people... There's been some good football chat in this thread, let's please keep it that way.

You seem to have a complex or chip on your shoulder - I'm trying to figure out the root cause and whether or not you're compensating for something. 

You know, they say that memory is attributed to intelligence...

I'm just trying to cut out the bullshit. You guys seem fixated on my profession. I don't even care what you do for a living becuase my agenda here is not to one up either of you. I'm here to discuss football.

I am Trained in crisis intervention though and I deal with several disturbed individuals on a daily basis. You meet the criteria in many areas. I have highlighted them for you:

Symptoms have been present for an extended period of time, are inflexible and pervasive, and are not a result of alcohol or drugs or another psychiatric disorder.  The history of symptoms can be traced back to adolescence or at least early adulthood.

The symptoms have caused and continue to cause significant distress or negative consequences in different aspects of the person's life.  
Symptoms are seen in at least two of the following areas:

Thoughts (ways of looking at the world, thinking about self or others, and interacting)

Emotions (appropriateness, intensity, and range of emotional functioning)

Interpersonal Functioning (relationships and interpersonal skills)

Impulse Control  

You nailed all 4 on that one............I can even try and get you in touch with someone in your area if you want. Let me know and Good Luck.

And you tell me who has a chip on thier shoulder.

Perhaps we should offer you some help as well.  ;)

At least I can answer a straight question asked of me.  Are you sure your not a Pats fan? 

Goodnight, Gracie...
