Three choices later went Cleveland Browns, which had plenty of chances of taking Sanders, with Oregon Quarterback Dillon Gabriel.
Seahawks traded Geno Smith to Raiders earlier this season and brought Sam Darnold to a three-year-old, $ 100 million.
Milroe is not very well known for his arm, but some scouts say he has some of the best raw athletics at any quarterback in the NFL draft.
Gabriel, meanwhile, transferred to Oregon for his last year with NCAA eligibility, and the ducks were No. 1 seed in college -football -ending games. But they lost against Ohio State, who won the national championship.

It is now five quarterbacks taken in front of Sanders that continue to fall.
Colorado -quarterback said Thursday night after round one that he “didn’t expect” to fall in the night two of the draft, so you can only imagine what is going through his mind right now.
Milroe threw in 5,678 yards and ran for 1,257 in his last two years in Alabama. He led his team to Rose Bowl after winning the SEC championship in the 2023 season, but they lost to any national masters in Michigan.
Gabriel finished in third place in the Heisman Trophy vote last season, which led the Big Ten in both finishes and attempts. He threw in 3,857 yards and 30 touchdowns.

Quinn Ewers also waits for his name to be called – which would be such a big shock as something else.
