Jalen Milroe should be picked by the Las Vegas Raiders in the upcoming NFL draft, according to ESPN reporter Jeremy Fowler. According to Fowler’s recent report, Milroe would be a fantastic fit for the Raiders, who could easily mold him up to be a great quarterback in the near future. Geno Smith, who currently plays for the Las Vegas Raiders, can also be a great mentor to Milroe, as per Fowler’s report.
The Las Vegas Raiders are definitely eager to improve their record in the 2025 NFL season after an unimpressive season last year. The Raiders finished at the bottom of the AFC West with only four wins on the season. After the season ended, the Las Vegas Raiders got to work immediately for the next year, making several personnel changes.
Retired NFL player, Tom Brady, also became a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders earlier this year. Apart from just being a minor owner of the franchise, Tom Brady will also be consulted on various important decisions when it comes to players and training. Brady can be expected to play a huge role in the draft picks that the Las Vegas Raiders make in a few hours.
Jalen Milroe is definitely one of the big names in the 2025 NFL draft, and is already considered to be one of the fastest quarterbacks ever. Milroe played college football for the Alabama Crimson Tide from 2021 to 2024.
In his senior year for the Crimson Tide, Milroe managed to throw for 2,844 yards, scoring 16 touchdowns while managing 11 interceptions. While his stats may not be that exciting when compared to other draft prospects, it is pretty clear that Milroe will go a long way and has much to prove in the sport.
Jalen Milroe’s Reputation Endangers That Of Shedeur Sanders
It seems like Jalen Milroe has already found major competition even before entering the NFL. As Milroe’s exhilarating speed on the field is continuously being highlighted across NFL discussion forums, NFL analysts remark that Shedeur Sanders’ draft stock keeps dipping.
While Shedeur Sanders’ stats are definitely way better than Jalen Milroe, the former Colorado Buffaloes quarterback has numerous complaints against him. Some NFL scouts point out his brash attitude, while others are calling attention to his weak throwing arm. These points, together with Milroe’s super speed, are the reasons why Sanders is not expected to be such a big pick in the upcoming draft.
