Pick 92: Jalen Milroe

[JSeahawks]

I could see him having some goal line packages. Roll outs. Read options. Tush push specialist.

Mr. Happy is at it again.

This probably means we're committing three roster spots to QBs this year.

Let’s buck the system and do 4

Milroe needs work as a passer but the traits are off the chart for a 3rd rounder. He can develop into the best in this draft, or a wasted pick. People complain he never takes a shot and he did on probably the highest upside you’ll see in a while. He’s not coming in to start year one or two. The coaches feel they can work with him while still getting him on the field year one

You gotta take a chance sometimes!

And it’s a third round pick!

The potential is enticing enough to take a chance!

There can be no rewards without some risk included!

 

[White Devil]

Remember when Mike was caught asking Grubb, "why are we passing there?"

This is what this pick is about, and pretty much every move that has been made since that day.

It's an intriguing pick. And if he's used in a Taysom Hill type role in short yardage situations, I'm down.

Lamar Jackson won an NFL MVP in a season he wasn't the best passer. He won it because he could rush for 1000+ yards. Milroe is in the same mold. Hopefully his career ends up on the same trajectory as Jackson's has.

he's 100% correct. If you need someone to throw a quick out and throw it into the ground Milroe is your guy. I would have taken anyone over this guy. 1000% will never be an NFL QB. No shot.

Well he’s now an NFL qb so there is that.

 

[Azvacar]

Can you imagine..... a team trading for Sam Howell vs drafting Sanders? lol

I'd like to think there's a chance for that. Maybe a team needs a backup and we can get a LB project or something. Unfortunately , I think the only offers we get are a pick in the 11teenth round of the 2029 draft.

So you've never watched a single Bama game.... got it

This was going around earlier this week.

“We heard” who is “we” exactly???

Gwt

It will be the secret weapon play for the Hawks. Their tush-push.

8 yds on first down and then tush push the next two. Again and again.

6th in Heisman voting under Saban.. this **** Fin SUCKS

 

[HoldYourHawk]

Love it. Just feels like MM saw a kind of Lamar 2.0 in Milroe. Here's to hoping Seattles coaching can help mold the young man's decision making and accuracy, because he certainly has the athleticism.

 

[CallMeADawg]

Milroe is 6’ 2” 217lbs. He’s like a linebacker that can throw the deep ball and has home run power and speed as a runner.

Wasted pick. JS could've gotten Jared Wilson and this Draft would be an A+. I think JS outsmarted himself here.

 

[HawkFreak]

Maybe Milroe at the goalline, but not the red zone. You need to be able to make good decisions down there.

BTW, the Raiders just used another two picks on players to protect Geno.

Are they guaranteed good OL players?

watched a bunch, he's terrible. terrible decision making, erratic thrower, can't read a defense bails from clean pockets. The best you could hope for is a gadget player. complete waste of a pick.

[CouchLogic]

Not a fan, but there is plenty of ammo to say "F it". He could turn out better than expected, or not. I'm not huge on draft positions, value, etc. So, shoot a shot and make it or rebound and try again.

Darnold goes down, we got the next Tebow at worst. That guy won some playoff games with **puke** Denver. BUQBOTF is still crucial to a team, just sayin'.

An interesting choice. I say Eff it, let's see what he's got.

 

[Sgt Largent]

If 40 percent of your tape is running the ball, you are not an NFL quarterback.

Yes, they have a seal of approval from the President of Football.
