McCarthy’s Trade Potential Rises | Minnesota Vikings News

The Vikings’ first-round QB pick JJ McCarthy may be headed to Miami in a trade — with the Dolphins needing depth at QB and McCarthy’s young, unproven but still promising career making him an intriguing late-round asset. With Kyler Murray locked in as starter and Carson Wentz potentially backing him up, McCarthy’s role is shrinking fast. At just 23 and with only 10 starts under his belt, he’s not yet the answer — but if the Dolphins’ Malik Willis falters, McCarthy could be the perfect gamble. Plus, Miami’s draft capital is valuable since they’re expected to tank — meaning a fourth-rounder could be worth more than it sounds. It’s a messy situation for Minnesota, but trading McCarthy might be the smart move for both teams.
