Notably, Michigan’s status as national champions and their record-breaking 18 Combine invites have attracted a bevy of NFL teams. Among the attendees are head coaches from seven teams, including the Bears, Cowboys, and Patriots, as well as nine general managers representing franchises such as the Broncos, Steelers, and 49ers.

With the NFL Draft just five weeks away, McCarthy’s NFL future has become a topic of debate. Despite being a former five-star recruit and leading Michigan to a remarkable 27-1 record, including a national championship last season, opinions vary on his potential at the professional level.

Michigan’s Pro Day is scheduled for Friday, March 22, and presents an opportunity for teams to reevaluate McCarthy’s skills. Unlike the Combine, McCarthy will have the chance to showcase his abilities to receivers he’s familiar with, potentially alleviating concerns about his performance, particularly on throws to the left sideline.

Teams like the Giants, who currently hold the sixth overall pick, have expressed interest in McCarthy. Sources suggest he might be the player the Giants are targeting. Meanwhile, the Vikings, now possessing picks at No. 11 and No. 23 after a trade, are also in need of a quarterback and could potentially trade up for one, with McCarthy being a candidate. The Broncos (pick No. 12) and the Patriots (No. 3) have also been linked to McCarthy recently, adding to the intrigue surrounding his potential landing spot in the draft.
