gain, you're naming another player who was ELITE in college. Milroe is a guy who struggled at the college level. You can't draft a guy like that as a quick fix until his athletic abilities diminish because you first have to fix him. Lamar Jackson, Cam Newton, Vince Young, Michael Vick, et al, were awesome in college.

For one thing, as a Saints fan, I'm not hoping we draft him

For another, you left off a name: Jalen Hurts. He wasn't elite, he benefited from Bama's overall talent level and they moved on to Tua as soon as they could. He put numbers up at Oklahoma, but I would say that was still talent differential + being in a great system. He was impotent against the 2019 LSU defense, which wasn't one of LSU's better defenses.

Hurts has 2 Super Bowl appearances, including a win this year.

I think Milroe has as much talent and ability as Hurts does.

Look, I saw the guy play in college, and he did make some crazy plays. He was not consistent at all. But when he was on, he was good.
Look at what he did against Georgia, probably the best team in the SEC-
374 yds passing, 117 yds rushing.

if you can't acknowledge that, that's on you. I don't really care, but I can see where somebody would give it a try.

Ok, down vote me if you like. Let's see if he gets drafted
