ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. is confident in the 2025 NFL draft range for Miami quarterback Cam Ward and Alabama signal-caller Jalen Milroe.
Kiper believes that Ward and Milroe are both "firmly" in the discussion as first-round draft picks and has been especially impressed with the Crimson Tide passer.
"He's physical and tough, with a rock-solid 6-foot-2, 225-pound frame," Kiper wrote about Milroe. "He shows strong accuracy on deep throws, averaging 11.3 yards per attempt this season. He's a dynamic player who can beat defenses with his underrated speed, even when he has to deal with Georgia's talented defensive playmakers.
