Which Michigan player needs to have the biggest performance in the 2024 NFL scouting combine?

The Michigan Wolverines have the most players entering this year's NFL scouting combine, but some players need to perform more than others. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy may have been the quarterback to win the national championship, but he needs a great week of performances to climb up draft boards.

This draft class has a large number of quality quarterbacks, so McCarthy needs to do well. His draft stock has been one of the biggest fluctuations of any player, so it will be interesting to see how he does. We have seen what he can do on the field, but how he performs, measures out, and interviews will be critical for his landing spots.

With all the changes, the Wolverines are in an interesting spot as a college football program. However, their draft prospects are going to be intriguing.
