Mad Dog is spot on here, people gotta stop overthinking these drafts
Lol yeah just don't think and take Bo Nix top 2
McCarthy will go early second day of the draft. Around 34-35.
They can’t when their job is on the line. There’s a reason most of these teams are picking in these top 5 spots. Then they have do extra to convince their team owners if/when it does fail that it wasn’t their fault.
@@chadwickermanhe’s not a top 5 pick but he’s getting drafted their.
On God
Trading up for McCarthy when you can trade down for Penix Jr is stupid.
Vikes also have the 23rd pick so just draft Penix there
Best comment
@@andrefrancis7295if he’s there..Raiders, Saints, and Broncos could have interest
Exactly he's way better
McCarthy is not a top 10 pick. He will be a game manager at best. Imagine trading up and taking him lol
Mad dog is the only one saying what people scared to say JJ is not a 1st round pick 💯 anybody can throw check downs
@@theacgkid facts and I think it’s gone be JD💯 Caleb’s outside people will be his downfall and maye will sink himself
Check downs? Michigan was 15th in yards per pass attempt 😂
@@tm8916only 22 TD passes 🫤
Yeah best 3rd down QB in the country which matters in the NFL doesn’t mean anything.
This guy never took a snap in his life. He's never played a sport in his life.
Mad Dog speaking for the people....much needed
Never thought I’ll agree with Mad Dog
@@RakEmUp90you agreed with the producer who wrote that speech for him
JJ literally has all the skills. He is a loud take artist not a football analyst.
Mad Dog is so spot on 😂
True, but if we are doing based on who the best players are in the draft, only one should be in the top 5. That’s not why a qb is picked in the top 5, it’s based on positional value
@@NoooTheWall32 you should comment that a few more times
@@jejbsh2191 ight, thanks for the tip!
Last 6 games of the season he had 847 passing yards so about 145 yards a game. And now he's a super passer 😂😂😂 he might develop to be but he ain't as of now
💯💯 It’s so insane how out of control the JJ hype has gotten. Dude was so average in college. He looked terrible in half their games. Even against bad teams like Maryland he looked terrible. And he was playing on the best team in the country. Can’t process, isn’t accurate, struggles to throw to the left side of field. So many issues
If the bears didn’t have the number 1 pick people would be saying Caleb is the unanimous pick lmao
The rare time I'm happy Mad Dog was on the show. He was spitting facts because every draft there is a below average QB that gets hyped up just to be the biggest bust of that class. This year's will be JJ
Super Rare but Dog was 1000% on point
You mean like Josh Allen or Pat Mahomes? Because they were both considered below average and hyped up
They had elite transcendent arm talent and other raw traits that if developed, could become elite talents. No quarterback outside of Williams really possesses either.
@@chicagodude8888 they all have traits like that. Even Penix. That’s why they’re being talked about as having upside to be good starters
@@benkellman4577 Kirk Cousins a good quarterback. Patrick Mahomes is an elite talent.
Mad Dog is usually wrong but is dead right on this topic!!!
Whoa! Mad Dog is barking absolute Truth today folks with J. J. McCarthy commentary!!❤❤❤😂
Caleb Williams is clearly the best quarterback in the draft. There should be no discussion on that and they should focus on talking about other positions besides quarterback
Daniels shits in Caleb’s mouth.
Not clear
Also is a cancer and will implode.
@@MikkiChavezit’s been clear for 2+ years bub
He’s not. It’s Daniels
I never ever thought that I would see the day I would agree with Mad Dog %100....he's absolutely right!!!
I like the dynamic of these 4 talking
I hope Minnesota takes Penix at 11
Stephen A....Michigan vs Washington was the national championship game
Stop it JJ is average at best there is no way if Maye, Penix, Nix and Williams went 5 straight games without throwing a touchdown and a game where you run 30 straight handoffs would we be saying they top 5
Mad dog is right
“orelovsky wants to put him in the hall of fame” 😂😂😂 that was elite
Great clip
Bryce Young should be a cautionary tale with regard to JJ McCarthy....the risk of giving up the farm for a quarterback prospect.
Bust Young
It’s gonna be another Josh Rosen like mad dog said lol
How many throws did he do on 3rd & 7? Lower amount of attempts would make him number 1
Yep just like how Shaq is a better 3pt shooter than Steph because he shot 50%, but Steph shoots ONLY 42.5%.
Mad dog has a history of always being right obviously
Jj is completely over rated what makes him better then Pennix or Bo
Bo Nix similar to J.J but I would take Nix
I think is a younger Cousins.
I love how everyone acts like they know how these players will turn out. So many factors play crucial roles for the success of a QB.
Can't wait for JJ to be a mediocre spot starter so all these clowns can stop spouting nonsense about McCarthy
Stephen calling JJ a brother 😂
He is to him.. he’s a sellout
100% agree with Mad Dogg take on JJ McCarthy
Always draft the BEST PLAYER available!!! Simple.
Thank you! Mad dog the only one with a brain I don’t understand all this love for jj
How are they using the coaching of Michigan vs Penn state against JJ? He didn’t choose not to throw it lmao
JJ has a a better passer efficiency rating, fewer INTs per game, higher yards/attempt than Maye. He can run a 4.5 40 and he can throw the ball 61mph. He is also younger than Maye. I really don't get downgrading JJ because he went 27-1 and never even played a down over age 20. Michigan is not a dynasty. They just won their first title in 26 years.
Quarterbacks always get hyped up and then they usually disappoint and end up being backups or gone from the league. Tom Brady, Brock Purdy, Russell Wilson, and Kirk Cousins were all drafted after or during the third round. Maybe those GM's should start taking the best player at other needed positions instead they choose the flashy pick that usually gets them fired.
I guess we ll see!
I like JJ and in the right situation he could be great and that’s the thing with ALL QBs.
Where you go and what’s around you especially while starting out matters.
Top 2 QBs are perfect example of that. It’s not a shocker CJ talents was able shine with the players and coaching around him.
While Young struggled with dam near nothing on offense for him.
All those stats are cool with 2/3 of the season being against GARBAGE... I'd like to know, what he was against good teams. Numbers are simply numbers if you dont put them into proper context. 👍
Mad dog likes to hear his self talk 😂
That's what they're paid to do.
Penix>McCarthy, if you’re worried about injuries don’t draft anyone… because people get hurt in the NFL, with or without previous injuries.
Oh come on. JJ has elite accuracy… on handoffs…
I'd take JJ McCarthy over Penix all day every day.
Mad dog, it’s not about if JJ is a top 5 player in the draft. That’s not how the NFL draft works. Qb is a highly valued position for obvious reasons, and that’s why QBs are taken higher than they “should” be. If we are only selecting players bc BPA, then there would be only one qb in the top 5. It’s about who will go after him and how early he will go
Penix is better than JJ
@@NickiDusseNix too
lets be honest we have one of these QBs every year this year its JJ
Justin's contract, year 4, and that he didn't play well enough in the 4th qtr was why they got a 6th.
I mean, how many of these football GMs are actually good at their jobs???😂😂😂 just look at how players are now a days😂😂😂
Imagine Shedeur with a o-line that boy would be serious!!!
JJ MCCARTHY IS BETTER THAN DRAKE MAYE! FYI I WAS A GUY WHO SAID MAC JONES WASNT THE GUY AS SOON AS I SAW HIM ON THE PATRIOTS! mccarthy is highly underrated! he has certain qualities like being very mobile, having a super strong arm, delivering in big moments, and the ability to be very accurate that isn’t valued! also, mccarthy is quirky, has a dawg in him, and alpha personality that maye does not that is something needed to stand out in the nfl! reminds me of a joe burrow type personality! #jjmccarthhy #nfldraft #patriots
He’s so accurate though. He has the intangibles I’d take him. And he can run too.
I don’t know? Remember a guy with the last name Brady! Nobody thought at pick 199 that he would be the 🐐 you never know.
Relax everyone. Mel kiper is more likely to be wrong about every one of his picks than predict a trade and pick.
Jj will be the will Levis of this years draft “can they be in the top 5” second round pick
I never agree with Mad Dog but that’s what I’m screaming!!!! Someone is about to waste a pick and it better not be my “Commanders”
Mid second round pick realistically
Guarantee if the Vikings trade up JJ, that JJettas a request a trade. You can’t sell JJ to JJettas. LMAO
Why is a Miami Beach nightclub owner from a Scorsese movie screaming at Mel Kiper?
This said Sam darnold is a bridge QB lol he's supposed to teacher JJ what exactly? 😅
No lies told bye mad dog
Mad Dog spot on. McCarthy played on the best team in the country, and after the cheating scandal broke and they didn’t know the defenses plays, he threw for 0 tds in 5 out of last 7 games, and less than 150 yards in 5 out of last 7 games. That’s terrible man. And people think he’s just going to magically morph into top QB in the NFL!? GTFOH
JJ going 3 or 4, from what I understand would not matter on a rookie contract.
Of course he's a risk, but so is every first round QB ever. The important question is does he have a chance to be a great NFL qb. If he does, he's worth the risk
What every sane, rational person thinks. Unfortunately they’re not too common
When Brock Purdy was drafted at the last pick of the draft the year he was drafted, would you have drafted him #5? No you wouldn't. That's what's happening with J.J.
Being a Michigan fan, I don’t want to root against McCarthy if he’s in our (lions) division
I am sure JJ fits to Vikings systems. But Teams will want Vikings to have JJ at 11? JJ is worth to draft so you draft him. You can say anything here because you are not worth to say anywhere else. Same practice.
He wasn't that great against Bama? LMAO dude, he made throws that kept them in that game. Just say you only watched cutups of the guy and not the actual games.
I know what the injuries were but I think Michael Penix would be the QB to take for the Vikings with the 23rd pick not a high top 5.
I'd rather take Penix and risk him sitting a year to fix any doubt in his game (I'd love to see what O'Connell can do with him in the background) then take a guy like McCarthy. McCarthy is a classic case of a riser in my opinion. A team in that top 10 not looking for a QB begging a team overdrafts him so they can get a quality player at another spot.
Michigan was blowing teams away and McCarthy had only one game he threw over 300 yard game? That’s crazy!If “he didn’t have to” means anybody else could have done his job and win national championship!
Mad dog is spot on, JJ is a very risky pick. He was never asked to carry the team.
He was asked to carry the team v OSU and v Alabama. They don't win those two games with his arm.
Caleb is going to thrive with the weapons Poles has assembled. Bear down!
Correct that Daniels is the best QB in the draft
It doesn't matter whether McCarthy is truly a top 5 pick or not. Its about supply and demand. If you have a bunch of teams desperate for a QB. Vikings/Raiders/Broncos and maybe Seahawks/Giants or ???? then JJ McCarthey could be picked in the top 5. What are those teams going to do at QB if they don't draft a QB? A lot of teams are going to want JJ cuz the top 3 picks are going QB. So its Penix or McCarthy.
JJ is a backup qb
I been saying this for while.. Vikings will be stupid to trades two first rounds for McCarthy.. he's second rounds at best
7:11 "One of the worst trades in NFL history." It was either that (because no one else wanted him) or keep him and have it be SUPER awkward during training camp when Justin sits and Caleb gets all the 1st team reps. Let me repeast. NO ONE WANTED JUSTIN FIELDS! His value was next to NOTHING.
Of course, the Panthers trade with the Bears for the number one pick won’t be considered one of the worst trades for the for the Panthers side in history
Qbr is the worst stat ever. Look at the tape.
I’m glad somebody said it. But JJ is champ he has potential but he’s not even top 10
JJ has BUST written allllllllllllll over him.
Of all the QB's being talked about in this draft, maybe one will end up being a success with the team that drafts them. They are so over drafted, teams are better off trading down and taking a QB in the second to 7th rounds. Remember when Trevor Lawrence was another can't miss "generational talent" how's that working out? Along with the other QB's taken that year in the first round, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Justin Fields and Mac Jones. Common sense in sports isn't very common anymore. Good luck.
What is Luis riddick smoking
In reality drafting anyone with a high lottery pick is a risk.
Bigger risk when you’re trading away next years capitol. There’s also an even bigger risk by the time your trading so much away for the 4th qb off the board
I'm a bears fan so I don't care I just want to have a successful season we haven't won our division in over what 6 years now so this draft I'm not excited talk to me in October about how good this Caleb Williams is.
October? Circle your calendar to November of 2025 at the earliest to declare him a bust. Which usually year 3 is when you have a better pulse.
Everyone trying to be the qb whisperer..go with who played the best overall..dont you think if jj was that guy they would have passed more?
Mcarthy the best qauter back option in the draft 🥴😭 no one has seen his full potential yet
Pass the Jay bro , stop doming
If Jim really believes mccarthy was so good the chargers would be drafting him and trading Herbert . Rookie contract reload team new coach . But he knows he is not that good so the chargers not taking him
You have no idea how it works. You still have dead cap if you trade him. This would make no sense
@@kc-wj2xp not if the next team takes his contract. Your not cutting him you are trading
Jim Harbaugh believes JJ is the best QB in this draft. Jim Harbaugh believes that Justin Herbert is a franchise QB. Both of those things can be true.
Also...Trading Herbert is a practical impossibility because of the dead cap hit. You have to weave in and then unwind signing bonuses.
Jj has won everywhere he’s been. Don’t see it changing
Has this Mad Dog dude ever taken a snap in his life? Louis Riddick is the only one in this video that has ever played in the NFL. The rest are talking head "personalities" with some weird schtick.
Broken record this time of the year every year 😂
The same guy that thinks Jayden Daniels, the same guy who finally threw for 3k yards in his FIFTH season(not 4000 yards, 3000 yards lol) is the best QB the draft, also thinks JJ is a top QB. Sounds like that guy just generally has no clue what he’s talking about 💀
Christ is King.
I would take Penix over McCarthy easily and I wouldn’t lose any sleep over that.
Mad Dog just hates Michigan. He will never have anything good to say about the program or the players. BET!!!
1:04 Mad Dog on point, JJ is not it.
J J a top 5 pick? Only time will tell. But williams still # 1? I don’t think so.
CW will be every bit as good as bryce young
Mad dog Look like he got that old hot dog water breath
Day 3 pick
all those qbs will be over drafted or bust... except maybe 1 or 2....
1:31 Mel Kiper Jr has the face of a man getting paid by Michigan boosters to boost JJ draft stock.
This is literally a blatant what can we make up to fill time during todays show. This is pitiful
He has a high QBR bc he's not throwing 🤦🏽♀️
*p.s. Dear Stephen b Smith...Staaahp It. We all know you don't watch any pro games, let alone college.
Williams as bonafide number 1 draft pick? The chosen one football player? When he never even won atleast 1 national title and McCarthy won a national title and also went undefeated that entire season at 15 and 0. Hahahahhahahahahhahahahahah. Let’s use common sense.
mel kiper CTE run needs to be studied
