Vikes trade with atl. Swapping 11 for 8 and some non 1st rnd picks. Vikes land McCarthy & Zher Newton, illini DT.
I could be on board with that result.
I dont see JJ as another Zach Wilson as someone here suggested. Actually I see opposite personalities. Drake Maye & Zach wilson are the closer comparison.
Wilson rubbed teamates wring at byu. A real entitled country club prima donna. Hearing Drake maye, talk his call of duty, and Golf video game nonsense- through his makeup coated pie hole?
If that doesnt scare off teams. Then they deserve his NC BUST pedigree.
JJ-Mac on the other hand. By all accounts. Is the arrive early, stay late -run through a wall for you coach- loved in the lockeroom- guy that players rally around.
All of these draftable qb's have a wart or 5.
JJ's- to my eye. His inexperience, questionable accuracy & stare down the receiver play that shows up on tape. That said. That more famous michigan qb, Mr Brady. Was a far lesser talented prospect in his draft year. Heck. He wasnt even the fill time starter for the Wolverines.
Famously, Brady worked harder at becoming a stud pro than anybody else. & That is what scouts & teams love about McCarthy. The leadership, the work ethic. And the projection that he'll bulk up his skinny frame- fill out is probably a better term. His 21 yr old body- right now. Looks like a possible injury prone player. But ive read that the "experts" believe theres another 15-20 lbs coming without a lot if work. Just through maturity. 6-3 200lbs is beanpole territory.
6-3 220 is more acceptable to hold up to nfl hits.
230 or 240 would be ideal as long as its good muscle & not steroid enduced out of proportion muscle that leads to the many sift tissue injuries athletes of today constantly battle.
If you go read red zone- every team is putting it out that they want to trade up. Can you brlieve them? Or is it disinformation? Hard to say. ...
We'll know in 29-35 hours... "With the 2nd selection of the nfl draft"....
I sure dont want to hear the vikes traded the farm to climb up. Theres zero need to move up padt atl. Denver & vegas lack the draft capital to get up padt chicago, most likely theyd swapping picks with the jets if the gial is to leap frog Kwesi.
