The Patriots and J.J. McCarthy: As reigning national champions, Michigan football’s pro day will predictably be a well-attended affair by NFL scouts, coaches, and other executives on Friday.
At the center of it will be Wolverines quarterback J.J. McCarthy, one of the more intriguing prospects in the upcoming NFL Draft. McCarthy led Michigan to its first football national title since Tom Brady was a student in Ann Arbor, but his draft stock currently resides below a trio of other quarterbacks: Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels.
Predicting where McCarthy gets picked remains a toss-up, with projections ranging across the first round.
