The NFL draft has grown to a can’t-miss event and this season’s quarterback-heavy field brings the excitement to a new level.
There’s a chance that a half-dozen collegiate signal-callers will go in the opening round of the draft later this month in Detroit. It’s open season for mock drafts, reports, smoke screens and speculation. No potential first-round quarterback has been debated more than Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy.
McCarthy led the Wolverines to a national title last season, though many are wondering if his attributes blend with his championship DNA. McCarthy threw for 2,991 yards and 22 touchdowns against four interceptions last season in Michigan’s run-first offense.
