People are going to be shocked what Sam Darnold does in Minnesota.

[ryanmclellan]

The Purple killed it in this first round.

[HansWick]

JJ is going to shock some people, he has so many weapons now he's going to keep stacking wins from highschool, to college, to the NFL

[kyllerkill]

Alex smith is not a comp. These guys are jokes. He’s closer to burrows the smith. He didn’t have to throw a lot in college but let him loose and he’ll light up the scoreboard. And has the frame to not get crippled the first hit he takes like Daniel’s will.

[brettsavelkoul]

Jj is a worse athlete than Alex smith?! Jj runs a 4.5 and killed it at the combine with the agility drills…

[kyllerkill]

Vikings got the best qb in the draft. May and Daniel’s are both busts. Williams will be fields version 2. Jj will win a Super Bowl before any of these other qb’s even get to the playoffs.

[ryanschultz]

The Vikings(Kwesi Adofo-Mensah) absolutely killed round 1 of this draft!

[babyfacespod]

You don’t go from a pro style offense… to a pro style offense??? Running around?? Since when does KOCs offense involve “running around and figure it out” offense? If you thought he was good solely based on “it’s Michigan, he’s surrounded by talent” what do you think an actual NFL team around him will do… with a guy like Justin Jefferson.

[julianwahly]

I don't understand the hate on JJ. I watched a lot of games of his. He made plays when asked to. Came up big against Alabama when needed. This is a huge pick that all these guys are sleeping on. The people that matter have nothing but high praise. So I will trust that over pod cast guys.

[nwatt]

JJs a championship winner in HS and College, does that not matter? He's also younger than Penix who will be sitting behind Kirk for 2-4 years. Vikings will look like geniuses in 2-3 years.

[obarbeito]

I know my Patriots will regret not drafting JJ McCarthy. I already hear the excuses for when JJ starts winning in the NFL. This 2 are sounding like haters or people who don't know talent... they are blind.

[brinaldi]

Dude just turned 21 hes going to be a stud

[ericw]

Are we watching the same guys? JJ's arm is arguably better than Maye. Better mobility. Better throwing motion. I don't get it. JJ>Maye

[derekbell]

Colin I’ve been a fan for 15 years or more but you are so wrong on JJ 😂. Are you going to dog him like you did Jordan Love constantly only to kiss his ass after 1 good year 😂. I hope you pay JJ the same respect when he flourishes 〽️

[_jse]

JJ is slightly less athletic than caleb if not the same. JJ would have destroyed the no D pac 12 back yard football they play. These guys dont watch college footba like that 😂😂😂 look what happend to Penix in that natty against a real D, not to mention if JJ had Them WSH WRs. Man Colin smootched his way to the top... Media is a joke especially with sports

[garykreutsberg]

You are full of crap. JJ McCarthy will win the Super Bowl for Vikings in 2025

[brianbronski]

I’m really happy that the Vikings got JJ McCarthy. I think he’s going to be awesome

[aaronfarley]

So, Colin doesn’t rate McCarthy but, thinks he’ll succeed??
Talk about a hypocrite!!!!🏈🏈🏈

[ethananthony]

The crazy thing about these conversations is their points are all based on a small sample size.

[thomaspower]

The Penix pick was a surprise.... Shocker really....
