Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy is going to be one of the most polarizing players in the 2024 NFL Draft class.
McCarthy is very highly regarded for his football IQ and athleticism, but he’s also undersized and played in an offense that asked very little of him on a down-to-down basis. McCarthy isn’t commonly reckoned as one of the top three quarterbacks in the class. However, his tangible and intangible traits have gotten the attention of the NFL.
The New York Giants could be in search of a quarterback this year. McCarthy’s upside and potential availability outside of the first three picks could make him an intriguing option.
