Yates and Louis Riddick (especially Riddick) seem to think that JJ has excellent abilities that will translate very well into the NFL. Starts about 2:30.

You and DH should have a dedicated thread to duke it out over JJ and whether we should be considering him as a top 4 pick.

i'm trying to figure out why these aren't posting like the one under yours. i didn't open it up and guessed what youtube video it was--but i didn't use the one you did. my theory is that you're posting it from a different start time than the beginning. post it from the beginning next time and see what happens. you can then just tell people where the part you are talking about starts.

I don't think the Vikings will have to make this decision anyway. They'll be picking between whoever is left between these two

Lmao

On a side note if you find the link to the video without the 215s at the end it will post it in video format. I usually take the title and do new window page and search the video on youtube. It will give you a different link without the seconds. Once you watch the video or some of it it gives you a link that doesn't work.

Probably right, unless the Patriots take the deal. That's if they are willing to do all three first rounders.

Kippers mock today giving up 3 first to go up 6 spots is a real butt clencher.

They would be "giving up" #23 and 2025 first round pick and essentially swapping picks #11 and #5.

Jole Klatt break down of QB's. Maye starts about 7:30 and McCarthy about 19:13 with Daniels and Penix sandwiched in between.

It’s happening!


“The Vikings have a lot of appealing attributes as a team,” CSW’s Ryan Roberts wrote. “They have a couple of very talented pass catchers, two good offensive tackles and an offensive-minded head coach with a lot of promise. Getting their long-term quarterback is paramount this offseason. They do just that with Maye. From a raw talent perspective, you won’t find many better than Maye. His combination of size, arm strength, and athleticism brings a lot of upside to the table. Maye is also still very young, which leaves a lot of room for development and upside.”

How is JJ McCarthy’s deep ball? I watched several Michigan games, but don’t recall any bombs. Michigan had a dominant run game with a lot of dink and dunk passes. How many passes over 25 yards did McCarthy attempt? And how many did he complete?

If someone is foolish enough to trade into the top 10 for JJ McCarthy, which I don’t think there is - the entire front office and coaching staff will be out of a job in two years.

If we draft JJ, I think that is also "settling" for a QB. If he's available at 11, fine. But if we have to ditch a bunch of draft capital to "settle" for QB - that more and more sounds like he's closer to the Penix/Nix tier than the Williams/Daniels/Maye tier - then IMO that's a losing situation. He's much less of a sure thing than the other three, no? His biggest advantage is probably his age - which is also an advantage to HIM. Where would he land in next year's draft if he'd stay in school and have a down year?

JJ McCarthy will not be attending the draft sitting in the room.

Lol

JJ McCarthy was invited to attend the NFL Draft in Detroit, Michigan, but he did not respond to the league and will not be at the Draft stage.

Via NBC Sports.


What does that tell you just as I suspected all all the bullshit hype is coming from his agent not Pro Scouts.

I hope they move up for McCarthy and he turns out to be a hit. Just to see how ignorant some of these "in the know" dorks who think they know who will pan out from this draft and eat shit. Or edit their posts.

No chance - he’ll never be anything more than a career back up if someone is dumb enough to draft him the entire front office and coaching staff will be gone

Barber argued that McCarthy's skillet would not translate to the NFL level, and suggested that his former coach, Jim Harbaugh, was driving the majority of the positive attention he was receiving.

Unnamed, NFL scout


Does a team really want to overpay for a quarterback in the top five or 10 picks who is not a dynamic playmaker?

McCarthy was not asked to do as much as the other top QB prospects in a Michigan offense predicated on running the football. He accounted for 36% of the Wolverines' touchdowns and 56% of their total offense last season, numbers well below the other 2024 first-round QB prospects
