Pat Shurmur: Browns To Move Forward With Colt McCoy As Quarterback

The Cleveland Browns have decide to move forward with Colt McCoy as their starting quarterback, according to ProFootballtalk.

“At this point, he’s our quarterback,” said team head coach Pat Shurmur, via Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. ”We’re looking forward to him being our guy and I’m looking forward to seeing him improve. We believe he has a chance to be a fine player in this league.”

Shurmur's comments indicate that the squad is not likely to draft a quarterback next month. It is believed instead that they are likely to target Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon or Alabama running back Trent Richardson, two players who would complement McCoy in the team’s offensive attack.
