Scouting Report: Strengths
- Very soft, natural hands to cleanly catch away from his frame. Concentration is excellent. Has the lateral agility and strength to get into and out of routes smoothly.
- He’s coordinated with soft, reliable hands, and McCoy shows the ability to adjust to balls thrown behind him, as well as a knack for digging out low throws.
- A fluid mover capable of creating some separation over the middle of the field, he has the long arms and soft hands to provide a sizable catch radius.
- Top-shelf balance and the lower-body strength to power through arm tackles. Has very good vision to set up his moves with impressive run-after the- catch ability.
- He’s a fluid athlete with excellent short-area quickness; he should be able to create separation, and he has the straight-line speed to threaten down the seam.
- Strong runner with the ball with enough agility to make defenders miss in the open field.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- A straight-line athlete with only average speed, lacking the wheels to run away from anyone at the next level. Struggles separating in tight coverage.
- He’ll have to develop a better feel for sitting down against zone coverage.
- McCoy isn’t going to overwhelm opposing defensive backs with speed and athleticism.
