In an unexpected turn of events, Jim Harbaugh, the head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers and former Michigan coach, couldn't contain his praise for his former quarterback, J.J. McCarthy, during the NFL Annual Meeting. Harbaugh's remarks have sparked speculation about McCarthy's potential as an NFL quarterback.

According to Harbaugh, McCarthy is the best quarterback in this year's draft class and has an unrivaled ability to play the position. Harbaugh further emphasized McCarthy's winning mindset, highlighting his role in leading the Wolverines to a perfect season and a national championship during their time together at Michigan.

Harbaugh went on to gush about McCarthy's recent pro day performance at the University of Michigan, claiming it was the best he had ever witnessed for a quarterback. The glowing feedback from coaches and general managers only solidified Harbaugh's belief in McCarthy's talent, stating that it came as no surprise to him.

During their time together at Michigan, McCarthy proved to be a highly formidable quarterback, throwing an impressive 44 touchdowns with a mere nine interceptions. Under his leadership, the Wolverines achieved an impressive 28-1 record in his 29 starts, further cementing his credentials as a top-tier prospect.

While the Los Angeles Chargers may not be in the market for a quarterback with Justin Herbert on their roster, Harbaugh's endorsement of McCarthy has undoubtedly caught the attention of other NFL teams. His glowing reviews and unsolicited praise could potentially boost McCarthy's stock even further as the draft approaches.

Harbaugh's unwavering support for his former quarterback has left many wondering if McCarthy will still be available when the Chargers make their pick. The coach's enthusiasm and the feedback McCarthy has received from other team personnel indicate that he could be a highly sought-after prospect come draft day.

As the NFL draft anticipation grows, all eyes will be on J.J. McCarthy, the quarterback whose mentor and former coach has unequivocally declared him the best in the draft. Whether McCarthy lives up to these lofty expectations remains to be seen, but it's clear that he has garnered the attention and admiration of those who have witnessed his talents firsthand.
