Jalen Milroe is Signed

[Hawkstorian]

This actually happened last week but was never reported. Just the 2nd round picks to go.

Note to JSN and Kupp: get some padding on your gloves, 75Mph balls are coming your way.

Maybe because they had an "agreement" but hadn't actually signed the paperwork. The team doesn't announce until the ink is drying.

Key Seahawks NFL Draft pick predicted to sit out entire 2025 season

Before the NFL Draft, most analysts saw Jalen Milroe as a project quarterback, and it's not hard to see why. Milroe is undenably an incredible athlete, boasting

I don't consider being the backup QB or even being on the practice squad as "sitting out." Poor choice of words when we have a veteran QB already designated the starter.

Wow...$38/hr to wait in line? I thought Gen X was supposed to be better than that. SMH.

Yeah odd choice of words. It's not like he isn't going to be practicing, studying film, etc. If Milroe doesn't see the field at all this season, it should mean that Darnold is doing well which is a boon for everyone including Milroe.

Yeah, using the phrase “sitting out” infers that he has a choice. His only choice is to get better than Darnold in a hurry.

I also disagree he’ll sit out the whole season. There’s no way we don’t find some strategic ways to use him to keep defenses on their toes.

Is nobody going to question the word "key" in the headline? In what sense is a whim of a draft pick whose ceiling is Taysom Hill (but maybe with a higher interception rate if they actually let him throw) a "key draft pick"?

 

[Jac]

Yeah, terrible title but the content itself is pretty fair.

Yeah, a project QB picked in the 3d round is hardly "key" to the team's short term future. Long term maybe, but still to be proven.

They write headlines to attract eyeballs, not to report truthfully, especially this time of year when there isn't much to report.

Most talented QB signing in the division this week.

Took to youtube and watched several highlights of his, damn that kid has some talent.

 

[m0ng0]

Yeah I saw that article and thought WTF?!? complete click bait title and I fell for it AGAIN

 

[SNDavidson]

Hey what was the name of that QB we had one time who always ended EVERY interview with "go hawks"?

 

[AROS]

I guarantee he will be in several red zone packages this season.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Can't wait to see how they use him. His running ability is flat out elite.
