Former Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy could be a top-10 pick in the 2024 NFL draft, particularly if a team trades up to take him. The 6-foot-2, 219-pound passer threw 49 touchdown passes and 11 interceptions over three college seasons, leading the Wolverines to a national championship in 2023. He completed 68% of his passes when under pressure last season, which led the FBS. He went 27-1 as a starter in his career.
McCarthy is ranked as the No. 4 quarterback in the ESPN consensus rankings ahead of the 2024 draft.
