NFL_DovKleiman ????????????: There is talk that the #Giants are planning on taking QB JJ McCarthy at pick #6 in this year's draft, per @Connor_J_Hughes "League sources spoke highly of McCarthy when polled by SNY. One high-ranking executive said he'll be a 'better pro than college player.' Another general manager said he has everything teams look for—size, athleticism, arm strength, accuracy, and playing in a pro-style offense."

Giants trying to fleece someone in a trade. Or have someone get fleeces to trade up for McCarthy so they can pick who they want.

I won't be an OSU fanboy and say he sucks cause he went to UM. However, I do not think his accuracy or arm strength are really that good. He is accurate within 8 yards of the line of scrimmage and was really good at it at Michigan. However, if you are trying to live 10 yards from the LOS in the NFL and not good 15+ yards plus, I feel like that fails

He is certainly an above average athlete, good size and played in a pro offense. I would maybe take him late first, but honestly think he's more a 2nd/3rd round talent
