- University Of Michigan QB JJ McCarthy will be part of the NFL Draft and the team that drafts him will be getting a talented young QB. In this video, I do a film study on NFL Draft prospect JJ McCarthy.
Support the channel: / internetfootball
JJ's true potential was held back by Michigans style of football but he never complained, he just won and he has one of the best winning percentages by a QB in ncaa history. He would benefit by sitting a year or 2 behind a veteran QB but he is going to be one of the best players in the league a few years from now
Got them past 1K wins go blue
And their wide receivers lmfao
Wouldn’t get a veteran but I hope he comes and competes with Pickett. I think JJ would do great under Arthur Smiths offense believe it or not and would beat out Kenny eventually
@@CryoSoulRoman Wilson and Cornelius Johnson are pretty good
@@DEEZ_CLANGaming they are ok - Roman Wilson there’s definitely an argument but they are not Marvin Harrison or Rome Adunze (and this is coming from a huge Michigan fan)
Now that's how you do it! Too many critics of J.J. aren't peeling back the layers and analyzing his film. They're just talking. Excellent work Jayden. This is how the Michigan insider podcast breaks down Michigan film every week.
But but but but, Meril Hoge said............🤡
This is an 8 minute film breakdown. This is not enough
@@falseandfactssports 8.5? 9?
He made insane throws all year. Especially in do or die situations. His intangibles are off the chart as well. One of them being his selflessness. JJ was the one who suggested running 32 straight against Penn State. This kid is a winner.
He was the betting favorite for the Heisman going into the PSU game and still was happy to hand the ball off all second half.
That last throw was special. As a Michigan fan, that was the moment (even though it was the first game) where I said, “oh…we can actually win the national championship this year.” It was clear that we finally had a QB that could elevate the team when needed, knowing that it would still be run-first with stifling defense.
My friend grew up in the same neighborhood as jj in Illinois, he gets a lot of undeserved hate i would love to see him ball out in the NFL
Most JJ haters don't bother to watch tape on him. Dude has made NFL level throws all season.
Exactly.
The majority of JJ hate comes from butthurt f🅾️SU fans. If you hear "He's a handoff merchant.... it's from their fanbase bcuz they're trying to construct a narrative about JJ. Fck em
This is why you watch film and not just numbers.
EcU bro..ok.. He stared down ninety percent of those throws that won't work in the pros.
@@rambowbizzlooks like you were on the “didn’t watch the film” side
What jumps out at me is this is Michigan vs East Carolina and I don't see UM receivers running wide open. So many times when you watch teams like Ohio State the QB is throwing to WR's that are 10 yards away from the closest defender. So McCarthy throwing with anticipation in tight windows is what he'll see on Sundays.
Exactly. Everybody is so quick to hate on JJ, but they don’t ever stop to look at the weapons he has. Look at for example Michael Penix, Caleb Williams, and Jayden Daniel’s. The difference between McCarthy in college and all 3 of those guys in college is that all 3 of those guys have SEVERAL receiving weapons projected to get picked high in the draft. AllJJ had was Roman and his TEs really. Nobody stops to notice that Jadyn Daniel’s wouldn’t have had nearly as good of a season if it wasn’t for having those reliable guys in Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr.
JJ , Just Wins , no ego , no mistakes or INT’s . That’s what I would want as a Coach or a Fan
No mistakes? 😂 Are you serious? 2 pick six against TCU and he def doesn't make the best choices, doesn't make the scramble choice soon enough unless it's a called run.... I watched every game the last three seasons. He has some growing to do but his upside is nice
@@richardcook3053reminder that he was a first year starter against TCU he showed much more maturity in the playoff this year
@@Hugh4306 3 picks against BG this year in one game! Sounds like mistakes to me 🤷
@@richardcook3053and one INT total across the other 14 games, including a playoff stretch and national championship. But sure, let’s pick on the one bad game during non-conference play where Michigan still won by 30 and pulled the starters early.
His first pass in the Rose Bowl was 1 of the worst QB decisions I saw all year long. Should have been an INT (that likely would have swung the outcome of that game). He got extremely lucky the Bama DB failed to get a foot down in bounds.
This is top notch analysis. Appreciating the things that go overlooked by ppl who look at box scores. JJ is going to play on Sundays for a long time.
the people who are critical of Mccarthy have not seen much of him. If you have watched him a lot, you have a completely different opinion. He would make 5 elite throws a game max, as UM didn't need more out of him. He is excellent at changing plays at the line of scrimage and reading the defense. Also remember, he only played 2 1/2 quarters in 9 games as he was pulled along with the rest of the starters. The PSU and Maryland game he was very limited and really didn't practice during the week of those games.
That was when he was same time of his injury also.
JJM is mos def underated, because of his mid numbers, but just as your deep dive suggests, there's more there, especially with reads pre snap. That said, he relies too much with his velocity, he rarely gives his receivers less and lead them from what i've seen in two years. When he does, it's always either too far or too short. It's almost like he doesn't have touch when you see these throws, unlike say a Phenix or Stroud. He reminds me of a younger Matt Stafford, all velocity all the time. With time and better coaching and system in the NFL, this kid has a chance to be special.
Eh, nfl receivers will do a lot better catching his throws than michigan's very average WRs did.
@@MoneyIsSilverexactly. That’s what I’ve been telling everybody because people who hate on JJ don’t seem to notice that all of the other top QBs in the class have weapons that are expected to get drafted high, when really all JJ had was Roman and his TEs. He never had that reliable guy he could throw down the field to
Great job on showing off JJ talent. Hopefull Vikings can get this guy
I’ve been thinking for years that the Vikings would be a good fit for him
First of all great breakdown! Second what program do you use to draw on your videos?
Great video and I am a long time season tickeholder at Michigan and obviously a JJ fan! JJ not only is a superior athlete, but he's a fine young man and team player! He's alot of fun to watch and I believe he will continue to learn and do really well in the NFL! I will be watching and cheering him on. Thank you for your adroit analysis! Kind regards
Nice work. JJ is also an outstanding individual. Not taking him will haunt GMs for years. Denver seems like a good fit. Raiders maybe?
sean payton with him would be unreal
yesssir LETS GO SEAN@@phoenixup9620
I’m hoping the Raiders go after him. Not gonna be competitive in that division, with Mahomes and Chargers QB, without a good QB. Hoping he goes to my Raiders.
JJ is a natural leader and has one of the best football IQ I’ve seen from a college QB in years. I’ve seen him keep composure multiple times under pressure where he made a play happen out of nothing. He reads the field and doesn’t force throws. Sure he may have to brush up on his accuracy and learn an nfl offense, but he makes veteran decisions that some young nfl qbs lack along with leadership that makes him years ahead in this draft class. A 21 year old body with a veteran mind.
I’ve watched every single one of his games and I’ll just say whoever takes him in the draft won’t be disappointed.
I was at this game. Great analysis. I like this kid (he is 21) and hope he goes to the Vikings at 11. I am now seeing mocks with him moving up to be picked by Atlanta. Should be an interesting Rd 1 draft.
Us Wolverines have been seeing this for 2 years. JJ's toughness and leadership coupled with his arm and foot talent will have whomever steals him in the draft jumping up and down like little kids on Christmas.
YES, SURE, I really want a new rookie QB JJ McCarthy in Our Denver Broncos Team Please for This Fall Season 2024. Amen. 🙏✝️🤠🤟👍.
Dang dude, great video! As a Broncos fan, I REALLY hope we draft this kid!
Might draft him now since Russ is gone
Great vid,..At least SOMEONE knows wtf they're talking about,.
JJ is EASILY the best QB prospect in the Draft~
I wouldn't say easily just because there's a lot of high level talent in this draft. But he is criminally slept on and if he gets to develop behind a veteran for 1-2 years like Cousins or Wilson we may have another Jordan Love or even better on our hands.
@@reallycarson He just has the perfect qb prototype size and athleticism..
But it's not going to be overnight~
@@matthewmatt5285he’s skinny and will get broken in two when he gets hit by an NFL lineman.
@@matthewmatt5285 I think his height is in the sweet spot for a quarterback he should just put on 10-20lbs more weight. I'd hate to see him get eaten alive by a 250+ lb pass rusher.
@@reallycarson He's nota man yet,.He's a young man..He will be 20 lbs heavier in 2 yrs~
NFL teams pass on JJ to their peril. He'll hopefully have a year or so to sit and watch NFL speed and elite secondaries to clean some things up but your analysis really seems spot on.
He just turned 21 a couple weeks ago so he has so much room to grow.
I was at that ECU game and as a Michigan fan, he was way over that line of scrimmage🤣🤣. I’ll take the no call but damn
Watch the replay. The rule is that your entire body has to be over the line I believe. Jj had his arm behind the line until he released the ball which means it wasn’t technically over the line. It was a close call either way but they reviewed it and stuck with the call which I agree with
I hope my Raiders draft him. He has a bright future in the NFL. The kid is only 21 and a national champion.
you'll have to worry about his old coach knowing all about him coaching the chargers.
I’ve been saying this all year. He’s a first rounder and will go in the first round…..for some reason he’s got a lot of haters but that’s something that comes with being successful.
I like him. He’s easily one of the best quarterbacks in this years draft class and my Falcons will certainly overlook him and live to regret it lol
Sike! We have Desmond ridder already they have the same play styles
@@readyondabeat Does that mean they will automatically play at the same level? His style kinda reminds me of Brady too
Then more and more I watched this kid the more I want them on my Broncos
As a Michigan fan, my opinion is that JJ is the best QB I’ve watched play at U-M and that’s since Grbac. Even Brady didn’t impress me as much as JJ did while donning the winged helmet. I think JJ’s attitude and accuracy will be the things that make him a success at the next level.
I would like to point out though that everyone who is saying Michigan’s running game is what held JJ back from putting up huge numbers, that can easily be a double edged sword. Having such a monstrous run game opened up the pass and it’s hard to say what weaknesses could be exposed if JJ doesn’t get drafted by a team with a solid run game which allows defenses to focus on stopping the pass. That being said, I think he’ll succeed no matter what he faces. I guess time will tell.
Good film analysis bruh 👌🏾
JJ & Michigan, #3 in the country in 4th down conversions. 27 -1 in the last 2 years. Beat Alabama in a come from behind win in the Rosebowl. To get to the National Championship and won that.
Patriots should take him. Michigan talent is proven talent. Overlooked like Tom.
JJ McCarthys accuracy dropped off majorly later in the year, a lot of people said this was Becuase of tougher competition, but since the Penn State game on he was significantly limited by injury, if you compare this tape to his tape against Maryland it looks like a completely different qb
He had a knee injury where he could not plant his leg without pain to make throws in the Penn St, Maryland, OSU games and Iowa games.
I don't really know why his accuracy dropped off, was it injury or competition. His first nine games McCarthy complete 75.7% of his passes, over the last six he dropped to 66.7%. I know that 9% is a big drop but considering how the 66.7% over the last six against really good competition compares to other QBs considered to be top in this years draft, Williams 68.6%, Maye 63.3%, Daniels 72.2%, and Penix 65.4%, McCarthy's last six (72.3% for the season) don't look that bad. (I feel that I should throw in that Bo Nix completed 77.4% of his passes this season.) I also find it interesting that people point to the Maryland game to show that McCarthy is not an NFL QB but they never really look at the entire Michigan team. The final score 31-24 Michigan got a safety and a defensive TD and still only won by seven, that doesn't seem like that was all on the QB. Maybe it was because the game was sandwiched in between Penn State and Ohio State, this is commonly referred to as a trap game.
@@jodyfoster9278 🤣 you wrote this thesis, when the answer was made clear to you already What part of, JJ McCarthy was injured against Maryland, do you not understand???
JJ didnt practice all week coming up to the game and he was clearly not himself and hobbled as we saw him get hurt against PSU late and not return.
BTW, by only looking at stats and not watching games is how you show people you are ignorant about him.
@@jessev5761 Did you actually read what I wrote? My point was that people act like he suddenly fell off a cliff after the Penn State game but his numbers even in the games after Penn State were as good as anyone else. If you have read anything I have ever wrote about the QBs in this years draft class I think McCarthy is the best of the bunch. have a wonderful day.
Raheem Morris talked about getting an “elite processor” at quarterback. I wasn’t a fan of McCarthy because his stats don’t jump out at you, but I can’t help but notice how he’s going through progressions quickly and making a decision. Not holding the ball long, keeping his eyes down field, and feeling the pressure of the pocket. I see a quarterback that the Shannahan/Mcvay system covets. Starting to believe he wont fall past the Falcons at 8.
Stats. Nothing shows ignorance more than someone who depends on stats over actually watching them play.
McCarthy reminds me a ton of Brock Purdy.You can see how fast he actually processes things....that's unteachable.
If the Bears don't go with Justin/Caleb, I would not be opposed to trading back and drafting JJ and signing a vet to play ahead of him - such as Kirk Cousins or Joe Flacco, etc. (though, I admit that's a long shot).
JJ McCarthy is a better qB than Drake Maye. And unlike Maye, McCarthy actually wins games.
Yeah, I like JJ a lot. The fact that he meditates before and during games to help keep himself balanced shows a level of wisdom most people do not understand. He could go far utilizing those tools as a leader.
JJ+Dagger+Flood concepts= pain for opposing defenses
I remember people said AR needed to sit and he played pretty good for the most part til he got hurt
He wasn’t asked to do much at Michigan. Doesn’t mean he isn’t capable. People will learn with him in the NFL. Seahawks drafting him.
I like his pocket presence and how he finds a way to make plays. His downfield passing needs to improve but I believe that KOC of the Vikings can help him with that.
JJ is raw and will sit for a year and probably be a real good NFL gb. Played hockey, 6'4 , arm and can move.
He’s not that tall . I’ve seen him in person . He’s 6’2 - 6’3 at most
@@di114n2are you the doctor? did you bring a measuring tape? good try couch gm
@@EthanDephouse Are you slow or just not able to process things ?
@@di114n26’3
Thank you, Very educational and informative. JJ is the best and most complete QB in the draft.
We know. :) Trust me, *WE KNOW*
Right? We've been telling these doubters for over a year now.
Good vid, man.
Now you see the power of the "mister bright side"😂😂😂😂Gooooo Bluuuuuueeeeee Baby!
I’ve been pounding the table and think the bears will find a way to draft him. Our gm loves local kids, dude wasn’t even 21 when he won a natty. Insane
Jim said he’s this generations Andrew
Luck. Jim knows more than us.
I’m convinced he’s going to Chicago
Where you are finding this kind of view of the field? I keep on seeing analysis channels using the angle your using and was just wondering where you can find it.
It’s called the “all 22”.
Pff
I like him to be able to sit and learn in his first year and not thrown in the deep end
I feel like Sean Payton with McCarthy would win Super Bowls
Great video and great analysis. J.J. McCarthy is the real deal.
truly hoping Denver picks him up, hes not the best in the draft class. but if he's available at pick 12, hes still a great choice imo.
If you want to see his arm strength on display, see the MSU game. Second TD to Loveland is a rocket.
Big10 channel just released his career highlight tape, minus his CFP games. Its glorious to watch. It starts off with that across the field TD pass to Baldwin against Western Mich and it only gets better from there.
McCarthy has great arm strength..that is known.
Watch the Michigan State game from last year. He torched them all night with his arm and made some amazing throws.
He goes to denver he will flourish under sean payton.. jj is not a " Me me me" guy like some critics want him to be... willing to play within the gameplan ...
the Giants really need to be keying in on him since we will miss out on the "top 3".
I came into this process thinking JJ was #6 or #7 as far as QB's coming out this year but the more I dig I'm starting to see why Harbaugh said he thinks he'll be #1. I really hope he comes to MN. JJ to JJ connection! WOOO!
I think a lot of us did and in my opinion you put JJ in that Washington offense with those weapons he has drastically better stats. He’s more mobile, younger, better feet and throwing mechanics than Penix. The more this process plays out the more I see him top 12 pick
@@allday2820 If your watch his tape the skill set translates to the pro game and that's just all there is to it.
@@shamelessdaddy8707 I agree
Harbaugh said he’s Andrew luck. Jim coached luck at Stanford. He knows.
Bears gotta love. Him
@@rbibbe34 I think he's similar. He's certainly not as broad and sturdy looking as Andrew but he seems to have a stronger passion for the game than Luck did....JJ needs to add some good weight.
Good tape overall. Very close but McCarthy did appear to take a step past the line of scrimmage with the ball still in-hand at the opponent's 19 yard line with his front leg that was his main support leg throwing on the run @ about 2:35 but hard to make that call.
It was reviewed, and down the line it still looked like he was over. I expected it to get overturned. But his heel was close enough that they let the call on the field stand.
Shhhh let him slide down that draft board
JJ is ultimate competitor and wasn’t really needed to throw 30 times a game. His best ball is still ahead of him
Seahawk should draft this guy if he drop to 16, but very unlikely gonna happen.
Id off myself if my team even scouted this guy
Ohio state fan or smth?
@@Bennett12337 no
He's arguably better than Drake Maye. Not sure why Maye should be chosen 2nd. Maye threw a lot more but that's about it. His completion percentage is worse not to mention his TD to interception ratio and his win/loss record. McCarthy just wins. Just gets the job done. Team first guy.
He was definitely past the line of scrimmage on that one throw lmao
He will be top 3 QB taken. Book it
Before Daniels Maye and Williams? You really beleive that?
Won't be a top 3 qb but has a chance to damn near be one out of the class- A bias, coping Michigan fan
Yeah I’m not sure what’s up with the reading comprehension of those that replied, but one of the top 3 QBs taken mean he could go after guys like Williams and Maye and still be in the top 3 QBs taken lol after the combine so many people will have different opinions. It’s just easier to see to some people than others watching film I guess. I’ll take these receipts though
I think most of the scouts out there have him as the undisputed #4 QB. Clearly better than Nix or Penix, but will fall behind Williams/Maye/Daniels. Vikings and Raiders have the best shot at him.
@@CanadianChiGuy23JJ is the best quarterback in the draft 💯
I'm a Michigan fan and I love JJ I think you should have picked film from a harder opponent
JJ has the potential to be the best QB of this draft class
Over Maye Williams and Daniels and Penix? I dont know bro.
@@jameskeffer2972 Why do we think Maye will be good
@@zackaryhunt5851 excuse me?! Why do you think McCarthy will be good? Let alone better than Maye 💀. Maye has a better arm. He’s the better rusher and processer by far. He’s taller and 30 pounds heavier. There’s a reason why the head coach who’s literally been to the big game in the national league didn’t use McCarthy in the big game in the fucking college league. Maye is the best QB of this draft imo and McCarthy’s not even a 2nd round pick. We’re literally comparing a Bryce Young Zach Wilson clone to basically Justin Herbert with Jalen Hurts’ legs like this is actually a waste of time no offense.
@@jameskeffer2972 bro then why didn't UNC do anything or win the games they were supposed too
@@jameskeffer2972 JJ won the national championship. Maye, Williams, and Daniels won nothing.
In the right Offense, McCarthy can be a better Brock Purdy.
JJ is a ball of clay right now with the moxie/intangibles and tools to be a good starting QB. Give him to Sean Payton to mold.
Great breakdown
He's good
I think he'll need a team with a good offensive line or that team should sit him while they build their line.
If Washington Commanders are smart they should really look at him and draft him.
Only people that hate Michigan are the same people that hate JJ. Truth is he has every bit of talent and experience to be drafted in round 1. Get over college passing yards stats. He’s NFL ready season 1
Thank you Great Job 🎉
The only stat that matters at the elite level is wins and losses. McCarthy's record as a starter? 27-1 (96.4%), 65-3 (95.6%)if you include high school. All this guy does is find ways to win, win, win. He's also a great runner. McCarthy made critical plays in several games with his legs. He's only 21 years old and has never had an injury bad enough to miss a game.
I think we're gonna pick JJ at 6, im not gonna lie im starting to get excited about this kid to, he's a winner and him working with Daboll LFG, he's a bigger faster stronger Tommy DeVito and Vito played well in Dabolls Offense, yeah im sold
I'd take him over Maye tbh
JJ will be the first QB of this years draft to lead his team to the SB and WIN it !
He just WINS !!!
I still think he needed 1 more year of development at Michigan but I understand why he went.
Future Viking
Give atleast a full year behind a similar QB like Goff & I think he'll be a good NFL QB
im not familiar with college ball is the cristicism for him because of how talented michigan is?
its mainly that they are a run first offence that does not make him throw the ball deep much
He's legit. Michigan was Stacked stacked and blew out everyone except an OT game vs Alabama. He didn't throw 50 times a game, padding his stats against cupcakes, because we didn't need him to. With the #1 defense we didn't have to worry about comebacks either. So JJ usually sat by halftime. He was so efficient that he actually didn't play a single minute of any 4th qtr, until Nov. 11th (9 games in). When he was in, he was spectacular tho. He made 5 or 6 passes a game that only a handful of NFL QBs can make.
TErrible take, Michigan throws deep often, but they are run first using play action to do it. Get it right ignorant person who didnt watch JJ play.@@pootis9558
He is going to be a Bronco, he will go 1st round.
I was a bona fide JJ hater last year but now kinda want him on my Falcons
What did he even do to make you hate him?
@@Ander173 I guess hate is a harsh term but I just really thought he was system. The TCU vs Michigan game certainly did not help. And the fact they had an incredibly easy schedule didn't either.
The TCU game where JJ threw for 343 yards and 2 TDs? If it wasnt for Michigan having a clear TD overturned it would have been 3 TDs passing and Michigan wins the game. @@reallycarson
@@jessev5761 and 2 interceptions
He could be the next Tom Brady if he finds the right fit in the big leagues. Hes already way ahead of Tom, by where he gets drafted.
Sometimes McCarthy winds up like a Pitcher to throw a pass and it appears that he is putting everything into the throw and it might only be a ten yard out which is confusing to me, because on other throws that travel a longer distance he flicks it like he was throwing a short pass. On some shorter out routes he throws it short in the dirt but then he throws from one hash across the field to a deep out on the other side and it looks effortless. I am not sure how strong his arm is for that reason, it looks really good on some throws, but maybe his mechanics are off and he isn't really getting the torque he needs on those misses he has. I think he processes information on the field faster than some of the QB's that are rated higher than him and he is going through three or four options and making the right decision most of the time, where Bo Nix only looks at one receiver then goes to his checkdown which lowers his time to throw. Caleb Williams goes through three or four options but he takes 3.1 seconds on average to throw so McCarthy is processing faster than Williams, McCarthy is taking 2.85 seconds to throw with similar route concepts.
Subbed
Seems like a good fit for Sean Payton tbh
5:00 all his receivers are open after the break but he chose the one receiver for style points
Lol
Wasn't across the line of scrimmage? ? ? Are you high? Or just blind? He was definitely across the line of scrimmage! ! !
He's a guy that cannot start year 1 or he'll do a Zach Wilson. He does not have enoigh reps but the tape he has put down is really good.
GMEM PICK THIS KID!!!
jj to jj
5800 passing yds and 44 touchdowns in 2 seasons. Enough said. Most ppl watch ESPN highlights and not an entire game. First Take tells them what to think. For example, the best RB this season plays for Oklahoma State. How many ppl know this?
While I think he is great QB prospect, the dude passed the LOS in that throw for a TD
I remember on the broadcast the "review expert" they had said as any part of his body was on the line when he started his throwing motion, he was ok. I don't know if this is a college football thing or if it's even correct, but I remember watching it and thinking he was obviously over the LOS. But they reviewed it and said he wasn't.
Washington should get him brah. He can hoop fr. The bad things we can clean up
Prediction: JJ to Raiders at the #5 Pick!! Raiders trade with Chargers. Harbaugh will approve and take picks for his old QB.
Should the steelers get JJ Mccarthy well be set....Kenny Pickett would be learning from him....
Great clips but the fact that they are against East Carolina is a bit sketchy
