Cover-2 base defense with zone blitz concepts, emphasizing speed and coverage abilities from the linebacker position.
Immediate special teams contributor and sub-package coverage linebacker with the upside to develop into a starting 4-3 Will.
A traditional 3-4 two-gapping defense that requires a high volume of interior run fits and shedding blocks from larger offensive linemen.
McCarthy's athleticism and coverage skills make him a strong fit for modern pass-heavy defenses, but his size and run-defending limitations in the box could be exploited in power running schemes.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
