McCarthy's mobility is his best trait; play-action run-first scheme would suit him.

The source identifies McCarthy's best trait at the NFL level as his mobility and ability to scramble, and argues his optimal situation would be a play-action-heavy, run-first offense similar to what he operated in at Michigan. An offense that turns his legs into a weapon without relying on him to heavily pass the ball in short range could enable his development and better suit his current strengths and weaknesses.
