Right now he has a late 1st or Day 2 rating. Drafting at 7 figure the other two QB prospects (Ward, Sanders) will be gone. Nevertheless, I think when people watch film of Milroe and all the evaluations of Combine and Pro Days come out, he will move up the charts. I like him because he has speed to burn and I think that'll help him while he learns the NFL game much like those I mentioned earlier, plus he's exciting. Admittedly he's a gamble, but what QB isn't.
I don’t think you’re getting him on day 2. I am not sure whether I’d want to jump in on drafting him or not yet. But he’s a very dynamic player albeit equally as frustrating sometimes. It’s just hard to turn away from that playmaking ability. It’s also a dumb misnomer earlier in the thread to say “he didn’t win” at Alabama like he was some kind of huge disappointment. In 2023, they won the SEC Championship which included them beating defending back to back NC Georgia. He didn’t lose a conference game in 2023 and lost in the CFP Rose Bowl IN OVERTIME to eventual champion Michigan. They had a rocky year as a team last year and he had some clunkers. It was the first Saban-less Alabama in 17 years. I’m sure the program was a bit messy behind the scenes.
I think it's toss up and really comes down to the direction we take in the FO. if you bring in someone like Ben Johnson or Kingsbury and he wants to take his guy at 7 you let him. But if it's Flores or Glenn I think you steer clear of a rookie starter. Grab someone in later rounds let him learn and battle with Travis
Taking an early look, and Mason Graham looks like an absolute stud at DT. Not sure he will be there at 7 though.
We need to draft a QB whether it’s first, 3rd, 5th round. Whatever QB we get let’s get a goddamn QB that can also run for a change!!!!! they need to trade down and get some picks in first 3 rounds.
