Jim Harbaugh loves his ex-quarterback, Jonathan James McCarthy. Harbaugh recently expressed that he feels McCarthy should be picked in the draft’s early rounds. Fans have shared their conflicting views on the situation after hailing him as one of the best quarterbacks he has seen or trained in college football history.

This open ‘bias‘ that Harbaugh has expressed toward McCarthy has fans speculating if the Chargers might be interested in drafting the young talent. Recently, even during Michigan’s Pro Day, Harbaugh had appreciated McCarthy’s displays and was in awe of them.

Jim Harbaugh’s favoritism of JJ McCarthy makes fans speculate about his move.

Having coached JJ McCarthy at Michigan, Jim Harbaugh has always been vocal about the QB’s high ceiling. Harbaugh even mentioned that McCarthy’s Pro Day performances were something to be in awe of. He stated, “That’s the best I’ve ever seen a quarterback do at a Pro Day.”

This massive praise further edifies his belief in the player to become a future star. While McCarthy missed out on the Heisman, he still has given tough competition to other top prospects Caleb Williams and Drake Maye after his impressive performances at the combine. However, seeing all this praise, fans are sarcastically asking Harbaugh to, “Trade Herbert and draft him then?” While Ben Herbert is another vital asset to Harbaugh’s roster, fans making this comment underline their taunts on the situation.
