The Seahawks selected Alabama QB Jalen Milroe with the xxx pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Milroe’s fantasy profile starts with his elite rushing ability. He ran for 806 yards and 12 TDs in 2023 and 879 yards and 20 TDs this past season. His 12 rushing scores of 10+ yards last year were the most by a QB in the last 25 years, according to The Athletic’s Dane Brugler. Milroe is a well-built 6’2, 217-pounder and clocked an unofficial 4.37-second 40 time at his Pro Day. His athleticism will certainly translate to the next level and give him exciting fantasy upside whenever he’s on the field. The question is whether his passing ability will be enough to get him on the field. Milroe has plus arm strength but shoddy accuracy and poor touch on shorter throws. He’ll also need to improve his pre- and post-snap processing. Milroe’s 72.6% adjusted completion rate last year ranked 53rd among 128 qualifying QBs. The good news is that scouts praise Milroe’s attitude and work ethic, so don’t put it past him to improve enough as a passer to develop into an NFL starter.
Milroe's rushing upside would make him a potential fantasy asset if he starts.
With Sam Darnold being the starter for the Seahawks, Milroe will have time to be developed.
His rushing makes him an interesting Superflex stash
