NFL Draft QB Jalen Milroe’s development? [April 7: Saints worked out Jalen Milroe] [Seahawks draft Milroe in 3rd round, pick #92] (4 Viewers)

I think milroe will be exciting to watch progress I hope the saints decide to draft him

 

[Jd101]

Milroe is very intriguing to me. Wouldn’t be upset if the team took him with a late flyer.

Do y’all think he can improve his accuracy enough to be Hurts 2.0? That’s the closest comp I can see….from watching a lot of both of em.

We now have 3 ex QB as coaches, so if he falls far enough I take and see if we can coach him up

 

[sammymvpknight]

I believe he can. Unlike a player like Anthony Richardson, who looks like he does not work on his passing game at all.

I think that Justin Fields without college passing production is his best comp. In the 2nd round, why not? But for a close to zero chance that he pans out at QB…no way I take him at #9.

I want milroe if we can grab jeanty 1st
Honestly if those were the first two picks I would be satisfied in overall

Our own little version of Lamar and Derrick

We already have better receiving threats than them currently

Yeah I think 2nd/3rd is good

Don’t be surprised to see Justin bounce back soon
I think he will do pretty well in NY

I can see the browns taking this route he could give them something to be excited about

Jets kind of makes sense because he’s in a similar mold of fields and a lot of times it’s the other things that can determine if your the guy or not like what’s between the ears

 

[Saint Spud]

He’s really intriguing.

I think the loss of Saban caused a lot of unrest at Bama. It’s hard to go from someone who was that strict. I’d love to see what Moore could do working with him.

 

[RJS]

He's one of the most intriguing players in this draft. He's one of the only QB's that actually has elite traits. He could be Josh Allen or he could flame out horribly.

From everything I've read/heard the kid is worth betting on but at what cost? I like him as a prospect quite a bit more than Malik Willis. I think he will be drafted higher than people think.

I think I’m at the point where I’d rather see the Saints draft Jalen Milroe at pick #40 (or trading into the back end of the 1st round) than drafting Shedeur Sanders at pick #9. Sounds like Milroe is going to attend the draft, so 1st round seems very possible.

I’d rather take a chance on Milroe’s rare physical skillset and hope Kellen Moore can get the most out of him. He obviously has a high bust risk, but I’d rather try again in 2-3 years if need be than be stuck with Andy Dalton type mediocrity for a long period of time. If Milroe can continue to develop and take that “next step” most had hoped to see this past season all of the sudden a GM would look like a genius grabbing him. For what it’s worth I think Milroe is a better QB prospect than Anthony Richardson was.

Tend to agree.

I really want this team to get a difference making franchise QB. And it feels like Milroe has a much higher ceiling (even if it’s also a much lower floor).

If you (Saints) feel this way and I tend to agree, you take him at 9 and don't screw around. It's going to be a fun few weeks!

If Milroe is going to be a first round pick and the team is hellbent on drafting him, the only way I would accept it is if we traded down with a team like the Steelers so they can land Sanders for 21 while gaining more picks in process.

Otherwise he's not a guy I would gamble on in the first.

I myself wasn't to impressed at his pro day !
