We have another talented NFL Draft class for quarterbacks, but does Jalen Milroe go in the first round?
FanDuel, a popular sports betting site, has the Alabama signal-caller coming off the board in next year’s National Football League event as a first-rounder. He is in the mix with Shedeur Sanders (Colorado), Cam Ward (Miami Hurricanes), and Quin Ewers (Texas) for first round value. Milroe, a redshirt junior, has 2,611 total yards, 29 total touchdowns, and six interceptions this year.
Alabama fans want to see these offensive players in action for Crimson Tide versus Mercer
FanDuel has the Las Vegas Raiders of the AFC West taking Milroe at No. 5 overall in the draft.

If things fall this way, the Raiders would have its quarterback of the future. Alabama would have its fourth quarterback — joining Tua Tagovailoa, Mac Jones, and Bryce Young — to be selected in the first round of the draft.
