Every once in a while a backup quarterback who rarely saw playing time on the college field impresses scouts during pro day with their physical skills. Matt Cassel, who was a career backup to Matt Leinart at USC, is the most prominent example. Today was another one of those situations.
While the Boise State offense revolves around junior quarterback Kellen Moore, it was Broncos backup Mike Coughlin who turned heads today. The senior, who threw just nine passes last season and 19 the prior year, wowed those in attendance with the ability to accurately make all the throws. His passes were delivered with speed and Coughlin rarely missed the mark. The 6-foot-4 passer has the physical skills to play at the next level and is receiving positive reviews from Boise State coach Chris Petersen. The limited film available on Coughlin will likely keep him out of the draft's seven rounds yet his performance today just about assures him an invitation to some team's camp, once they open up.
Boise State receivers Titus Young and Austin Pettis looked terrific in the catching workouts. Both displayed soft hands and caught most everything thrown their direction. Young also ran terrific routes, a far cry from the combine, during which he struggled to stay on his feet. Young's official 40 time was 4.41, which should move him back into the draft's initial 45 selections.
