ESPN Cleveland radio host, Tony Grossi believes Alabama quarterback, Jalen Milroe, could be the “odds-on” favorite to be selected by Cleveland Browns’ general manager Andrew Berry in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Grossi made this bold statement while on-airways on Monday morning when discussing what approach the Browns general manager may take when addressing the team’s quarterback situation this offseason.

“I think he’s the odds-on favorite,” Grossi said. “He’s been compared to Jalen Hurts. That’s the organization that Andrew adores. Anything they do, he thinks is the right thing. So there’s Jalen Hurts, but he’s bigger. Dane Brugler, NFL draft analyst, says he could be an NFL running back if he just became a running back.”

With the Reese’s senior bowl, NFL scouting combine, and Alabama pro-day approaching in the months of February, it will be intriguing to see where the former four-star prospect from out Katy, Texas lands in the upcoming April 2025 NFL Draft.
