NFL Draft Jalen Milroe? Any thoughts?

For the Tyson Hill role?

Milroe is a RSJR. He doesn't meet the Saints usual criteria for drafting QB's. Lord Moore's opinion could change that but I wouldn't bet on them drafting him.

Given how relatively little success they have had drafting QBs, they might need to start making more exceptions to the Parcell's criteria for QBs. I get having that be the criteria, but I think QBs above most positions allow for exceptions for guys who don't meet that standard but have some elite traits that the right coach can use to make them very successful.

I’m sure he does. Milroe comes from a military family as his Dad was a Marine and his Mom was in the Navy. They have molded that guy to be a great listener and a hard worker. His mental game is strong enough to overcome anything and block out noise. He’s willing to make doubters eat their words. Trust me, I hate Bama, but I’m a realist when it comes to athletes. This dude can be a big time player and a great face of a franchise

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.

Spittin’ fire as usual.

Also praying they change their criteria at edge too. lol

Any thoughts? Yep, not many of them positive.

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

They did? Literally?
Damn.

Figuratively speaking (they did.)

Milroe can't go to a defensive minded HC IMO.

If Milroe is ever a successful QB in the NFL it’s due to someone being very patient and spending a lot of time developing him. Therefore not worth a 1st imo, ofc he has talent. But this is not a plug and play JD5 situation.
