“The thing that I look for, one of the strong suits of a QB, is can he hit what he’s throwing at?” Zorn said. “Colt has done that. He’s been a 70-percent passer. Whatever level and whatever type of defense you’re going against, to throw 70-plus percent, there’s some accuracy there. . . .

“And he’s got the ability to move around. His lateral movement, his ability to get himself in a position to throw the ball after a play breaks down, is tremendous, I think. Hopefully, he’ll be able to come in here and do that.”

As the SBulletin notes, Colt now has the time and less pressure to develop into a starting QB.  Will he be able to do it?  Time will tell, but he’s landed in a place where he has a chance to develop.

Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan was drafted by the Washington Redskins in the sixth round of the NFL Draft today with the 186th overall pick.

“He was in a very quarterback-friendly offense,” draft analyst Mel Kiper said in explaining the late pick of Brennan, who was third in the Heisman Trophy voting. “(The sixth round) Is the best he could’ve hoped for.

“He’s not a kid completely without ability,” Kiper said.

Redskins vice president Vinnie Cerrato said Brennan will have time to develop.

“We’ve got an outstanding person to coach him and teach him,” Cerrato told ESPN. “(Redskins coach) Jim Zorn will be just what the doctor ordered for him. There’s no pressure, he’s got time to learn and develop.

“He’s done a ton of things. He’s had a lot of success. You can’t discount all the victories and all the touchdowns.”

Brennan was the 10th quarterback selected in the draft.

Scouts considered him a potential late first round or second round pick for the 2007 draft, but Brennan decided to return to UH for his senior season.
