The Seattle Seahawks selected Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 92nd overall.
Seattle has revamped its quarterback room this offseason, trading longtime starter Geno Smith and signing Sam Darnold before drafting Milroe on Friday.
Milroe is a dual-threat passer who threw for 16 touchdowns to 11 interceptions in 2024. He also rushed for 20 scores.
The Alabama product was the fourth quarterback selected in the 2025 draft. Seattle picked him over Colorado passer Shedeur Sanders.
The Seahawks last drafted a quarterback in the third round when they took Russell Wilson in 2012.
Pre-draft profile
Milroe is the upside play in this year’s draft. The Alabama product has NFL-caliber arm talent, and he’ll immediately be one of the league’s best running quarterbacks. Beyond that, there’s a lot of projection required. The accuracy is far too inconsistent at this point in his development, and the decision-making must improve. While a Josh Allen development path should be considered the exception for such shortcomings, there is some reason for optimism. Milroe has demonstrated an ability to work through progressions from the pocket, manipulate coverage defenders, and attack the middle of the field. Making the jump to the next level on a high note would have been far more ideal, but a new coaching staff and a downgrade in offensive line play were surely factors in his frustrating 2024 season. Could a few years as a backup provide the opportunity to put it all together and make good on his potential? Considering the potential payoff, it’s absolutely worth a shot.
