Retired head coach Bill Belichick will co-host ESPN's coverage of the 2024 NFL Draft in Detroit.

A record 18 Michigan Wolverines players have been invited to the NFL Combine, with 14 upperclassmen attending.

Top 5 Michigan prospects include Blake Corum, Mike Sainristil, Zak Zinter, Roman Wilson, and J.J. McCarthy.

Quarterback J.J. McCarthy's draft stock rose significantly, with a prediction to be the 11th pick by the Minnesota Vikings.

McCarthy is considered the wildcard of the draft, having led Michigan to a national championship and a 27-1 record.

Despite size concerns, McCarthy's NFL Combine performance impressed, showcasing his elite agility and passing skills.

Analysts see McCarthy potentially joining the New York Giants, with other Wolverines also projected to be early draft picks.

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh has hailed McCarthy as the best quarterback in the draft, indicating strong support.
