ESPN NFL analyst details why he ‘would not be surprised’ in Alabama QB Jalen Milroe vaults up draft boards

Jalen Milroe is starting to gain more traffic and respect from National Football League insiders when it comes to the NFL Draft.

The quarterback for Alabama football has produced a strong season as a second-year starter.

He has 2,232 passing yards, 608 rushing yards, and 32 total touchdowns in 10 games. Milroe has the Crimson Tide at 8-2 on the season with opportunities to play for a Southeastern Conference Championship and make the College Football Playoff intact.

The 6-foot-2, 225-pounder is an impressive athlete that has improved as a passer. He is competing against Shedeur Sanders (Colorado), Cam Ward (Miami), Quin Ewers (Texas), and Carson Beck (Georgia) to be the first quarterback taken in next year’s draft.
