Though the 2024 NFL Draft is quickly approaching, there are still a lot of things that could change. The draft will take place in a little over two weeks. In an attempt to portray themselves as the ideal prospect, prospects from all institutions have spent the last three months honing their resumes through scouting combine, interviews, and draft visits.
As we’ve seen, the NFL may not share the same views as commentators and the internet over certain players, regardless of the many favorable or negative tidings we’ve heard about them during this process.
Throughout the pre-draft process, we have heard a lot about Michigan’s draft prospects; but, there are still a few things we will likely learn between April 25–27 in Detroit.
Here are the remaining queries we have about Michigan’s draft prospects in advance of the NFL Draft.
This poll would have asked if J.J. McCarthy was worth a first-round pick at the beginning of the offseason. At some point, many started to wonder if he would place among the top-15. These days, it is impossible to discuss the top of the draft without mentioning McCarthy.
Since January, a combination of Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye, and Marvin Harrison Jr. have been the top four picks according to chalk. However, the fascinating part comes at No. 5, where the Los Angeles Chargers presently hold the position.
The Chargers should trade back and obtain additional draft capital because they need help at multiple places on their squad. The Minnesota Vikings, meanwhile, are in a great position to move up to No. 5 or possibly No. 4 in order to select a quarterback. This is because they now control two first-round picks following a trade with the Houston Texans.
McCarthy appears to be locked into the top-10 at this time, but we’ll see if a team like the Vikings is prepared to pay a high price to get him.
