John McCargo (born August 19, 1983 in Drakes Branch, Virginia) is an American football defensive tackle who currently plays for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League. He was originally drafted by the Bills in the first round (26th overall) of the 2006 NFL Draft. He played collegiately at North Carolina State.

Many draft experts considered McCargo a late-2nd or early-3rd round pick before the 2006 NFL Draft. Because of this, many people were shocked when the Bills traded up to select him 26th overall.

McCargo spent most of the 2006 season on injured reserve. He was the second string defensive tackle behind Larry Tripplett in 2007,[1] and played in all 16 games.[2]
