From the article

Dalton didn't have a bad day, either. The veteran quarterback connected with Wilson on a deep pass that would've set the offense up a little short of the goal line... Dalton's lack of zip/arm strength does stand out at times. Dalton hit Erik Ezukanma and Samari Toure on similar routes to the left side later in practice. I'd still put Dalton a little ahead of McKee for now … but the latter made up some ground on Friday morning.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Dalton solid but arm strength concerns remain; still ahead of McKee.

Dalton didn't have a bad day; he connected with Johnny Wilson on a deep pass that would've set the offense up a little short of the goal line, though the ball hung in the air a long time; he hit Erik Ezukanma and Samari Toure on similar routes to the left side later in practice. However, Dalton's lack of zip/arm strength does stand out at times, and he is still a little behind McKee in the backup QB battle.
