Put down another mock drafter who believes the Giants are flirting with Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy.
Peter Schrager has the Giants not only taking McCarthy but trading up to do so, and the betting world takes notice when he’s using his spidey senses to eek out teams’ plans.
McCarthy is now +350 to be drafted by the Giants on Bet365 Sportsbook, down drastically from the 16/1 odds from early March and down slightly from the +550 he was prior.
These are the third-best odds on the market, behind the Minnesota Vikings at +120 and the New England Patriots at +260.
Schrager isn’t the only mock drafter who has the Giants heavily considering drafting McCarthy as a replacement plan for current starter Daniel Jones, with The Post’s Ryan Dunleavy having the Giants selecting McCarthy but sitting at No. 6 to do so.
The smoke for the Giants to draft a quarterback has been rising since they scouted North Carolina signal-caller Drake Maye during the regular season.
