Pre-Season Outlook
McCarthy is in an enviable position after being the 10th pick in this year's draft. In a Kevin O'Connell offense that provided 631 pass attempts last season, McCarthy has at his disposal wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, tight end T.J. Hockenson and new running back Aaron Jones. The Vikings signed Sam Darnold this offseason, likely as insurance should McCarthy prove a project in training camp, but they'll give the rookie every chance to grab the starting job. McCarthy's mechanics are a work in progress, but at 6-3, 219, he generates solid velocity on throws. He lacked touch at times at Michigan and was inconsistent on passes outside the numbers. And on a dominant running team, he was rarely asked to shoulder the load (just 22.1 attempts per game). A top athlete, McCarthy should add strong rushing numbers to his fantasy profile, and combined with great surrounding talent, he should be viable in two-QB leagues even as his passing game develops.
