Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe is making a risky decision when it comes to the upcoming NFL Draft.
Milroe has accepted an invitation to attend the first day of the draft in Green Bay, Wi., according to Dane Brugler of The Athletic.
That Milroe even received an invitation is interesting, as those are typically reserved for likely first-round picks. Milroe is not necessarily seen as that. There is certainly a risk that he ends up in the unenviable position of being left in the green room after the first round.
However, teams that plan to select late in the first round have expressed some interest in Milroe. Given how eager some teams are in their pursuit of young quarterbacks in the draft, it is very likely that he will go off the board on the first day. In addition, Milroe’s time at Alabama college helped make him a household name.
Milroe’s pre-draft procedure wasn’t always the finest. He did, however, succeed with the Crimson Tide and possesses tremendous physical tools. Late in the first round, it is quite possible that a team may take a chance on him.
