PrplChilPill Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Even though I've watched some NCAA football, my opinion is based on so little ability to scout.....(and I've seen exactly zero games with my top 2 choices!) Maye, Daniels, Penix, McCarthy, Nix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Quote Ice is in McCarthy’s blood. His mother, Megan, was a competitive figure skater. He started playing hockey in kindergarten. Organized football came later. McCarthy is on record calling hockey his first love. What he experienced on the ice would ultimately help make him a better quarterback — one now on the verge of being drafted in the first round. He was 10 when the Knights defeated Winnetka in the Tier II Squirt A state championship in March 2013. He and Luke Lawrence assisted on the only goal of the game. It was a special season for a special group, one that eventually split up as players changed teams and levels. In the summer between seventh and eighth grade, McCarthy started training with Greg Holcomb, a private QB coach from Next Level Athletix. Holcomb saw a lot of natural ability. He also saw hockey’s influence. “One of the reasons why he was so good at throwing off platform and moving around and changing direction is probably because in hockey he would get absolutely killed if he wasn’t able to skate past guys or make them miss,” Holcomb said. “Hockey definitely helped him.” https://theathletic.com/5429595/2024/04/23/jj-mccarthy-nfl-draft-prospect-hockey-history/?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=twhq&source=twitterhq 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, what they have invested in Jones do they really want to gut their draft for either Maye or McCarthy? I also worry that the Vikings won't find a trade partner willing to give up draft position for anything less than 3 forst round picks. That's a steep price for Minnesota.

Agreed. I'm not the least bit worried if they have to give up the 2025 1st as well. Yes, they won't have a pick next year until the 3rd rd, but that'd be fine...they'll have plenty of free agency money to fill in the gaps especially on defense, and they'll likely have their OL intact, along with their primary skill position players. It's more important that they don't give up any 2026 picks...who knows, maybe they can even get some lower 2025 picks in return. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they pick the right QB, it's more than ok to give that up.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
