Jalen Milroe accepts invitation to the green room for the draft.

Hope he finds a comfortable seat.

i don't think there should be any more than 1 QB going in the 1st round this year because the talent just isn't there, imo.... but i think we could see 4 going.

I think jaden daniels has helped Ward and Sanders, Anthony Richardson has hurt Milroe.  I also think (since i am stereotyping) that Bo Nix is helping Dart.  Ward, I see it.  Sanders, I question it.  Milroe, I doubt it.  Dart, I doubt it.

Getting Brady Quinn flashbacks, while they were vacuuming and cleaning up the empty tables around him lmao

From Walter Football's latest mock.  Shedeur Sanders might be that guy?  He now has him at 33 to Cleveland.  Sheesh.

Quote

An NFL scout looked at my mock draft a month ago. He had seven words of feedback: “Get Shedeur out of your first round.” He also said he’d be surprised if Sanders went in the first round. I think he will, but it also seems like he will take an Aaron Rodgers- or Brady Quinn-type tumble. Hopefully he’s more Rodgers than Quinn, but speaking of Quinn, the Browns passed on Quinn to much criticism, but then traded up into the end of the opening round to select the Notre Dame prospect. Perhaps history will repeat itself 18 years later.

Shedeur Sanders has a high football IQ and great leadership skills. He doesn’t have a stellar arm, but it’s good enough for him to be a first-round pick.

FWIW the same mock has Milroe in the 3rd round to the Jets

[MHS831]

Of course, McShay is suggesting that they would not have invited Milroe unless a GM confidentially indicated that they would probably draft him.  They would not anticipate a trade.

Who would like him?  Pittsburgh at 21?  The Rams at 26?  Neither team has a second rounder.

I don't think they did it last year, but I think couple of years prior they invited guys knowing they were day two guys.  Will be interesting if any other obvious day two guys are invited

[CanadianCat]

I mean I would go if I got an invite... it would be a cool experience, one that almost no one gets. You just need to temper your expectations. 

[Basbear]

The NFL is trying to boost day two rating?

Even him in the 3rd is high, but more than a few GMs and scouting departments must have given the NFL enough proof for them to do this.

Kinda my thoughts too. He may have a 1st round promise, but if not, a Day 2 promise. Either way, a cool experience to go as long as you're not expecting to go early. 

Show up night one, have fun, sit back knowing you're not getting drafted, don't do anything to become a meme, and then get all the TV coverage to help build your brand as an underdog. 

[Bear Hands]

Matt Corral and Malik Willis went. These guys know it’s not 1st guaranteed these days. Not the biggest deal.

[countryboi]

I mean I would go because when would I ever get to do this again?

[jfra78]

I think they like showing the guy who was invited still sitting there after the first round.  It gives them something to talk about every 5 minutes
