McCarthy for Kyler Murray’s former team, the Cardinals, in exchange for late-round picks—but it’s a risky move that ignores the Vikings’ newfound QB depth and McCarthy’s value as a young, affordable, and injury-prone position’s insurance. With Murray now in Minnesota and McCarthy still on the roster, trading him for picks feels like throwing away future flexibility for a short-term gamble that doesn’t account for the chaos of quarterback injuries or the fact that McCarthy’s contract is locked in for years.
