The #NFL is significantly higher on JJ McCarthy than I ever could have imagined.

I had a direct source today share that a team in the NFC has him as their QB 2.

quote:

The more I watch the more potential I see in the kid but I agree QB 2 is WILD

But I've heard of 2 other teams that have him as QB 3.

Hes jumped to my QB 4 slot over the couple weeks of watching more film on him but it's clear the NFL is HIGH on him.

quote:

I've yet to hear of a team having McCarthy lower than QB 4 in this class.

Not saying there isn't one out there I just haven't heard of one.


NFL Draft network has the Vikings moving up

quote:

5. Minnesota Vikings (via trade-up with LAC)

J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan

Another trade? YES! Minnesota knows its options are slim. They can either re-sign Kirk Cousins and avoid drafting a young signal-caller or make a move for one. J.J. McCarthy is loved more by NFL personnel/scouts than the general draft community. Pairing him with Kevin O'Connell, Justin Jefferson, and Jordan Addison will allow his full skill set to blossom

“JJ McCarthy would be Joe Burrow if he were on a team that threw the ball” is what one scout had to say, per @nfldraftscout ??

Currently QB4, McCarthy has been mocked to the #Vikings and #Giants, much to the polarization of their respective fanbases.

I'm think I'm just as likely to be drafted top 5.

Can’t wait for the message board scouts to tell why the pros are stupid and wrong

The Bears.

Trade up to pick 0 and watch him bust.

I mean people think Herbert is going to be great bc of Harbaugh & this kid just spent 3 years playing for him.

If my team traded up for JJ McCarthy, I would probably just stop following the NFL all together.

It's that time of year again folks, where NFL teams send up false flags like old sailing ships meeting in the Atlantic Ocean.

Did they watch the Second Half of the Penn State game to come to this collusion?

There are always a few retard teams each year that y talk themselves into a qb that has no business going as high as he does.

If no one trades up, I think the Falcons take him.

I don’t see it. He was a good not great college QB that benefited from a system/team that didn’t need him to win games.

He looked very average.

Given that it won’t shock me to see the saints overvalue, trade up to get him and set the franchise back even further.

I’m on record as saying he’s my QB4 weeks ago. He got all the intangibles and way more athletic than most would think.

If this hype is real, I think the Chargers trading down is a no brainer for them. They have an old and expensive team that could use a jolt of draft picks.

4 QBs going in the top 8 would be an amazing situation for the Bears. Would fersure drop Nabers or Rome to 9 to partner with Caleb.

Who knows, but if you give me the list of the GMs fired between 2025-2027, that’ll narrow it down.
