Two great rookie qbs much greater that the first pick!

Milton looking awesome us better than losing!!

No. Unless another team is bonkers, this doesn’t equate. The first overall is coveted because bad teams will become enamoured w a QB and be willing to trade up. No one should be clamouring for Milton.

If they ARE, I’d be more than pleased.

You can only play one

He basically played a college offense, mostly (I think) out of the shotgun, RPA, limited reads....biggest plays made out of structure.....didn't really show anything he didn't show in 6yrs of college.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Weren’t the bills backups in on d? If not theyre in serious trouble!

 

[moosekill]

Beat the #2 team in the nfl. Looked better than maye has all year. Is now at worst a solid backup, at best probably better than any qb coming out this year.

 

[NashuaPats]

He played against 2nd and 3rd stringers. It doesn’t matter much. Losing the first overall pick hurts.

This is bunk. Other teams had their eyes pop out at Milton’s excellent accuracy and adept pocket presence. His size and athleticism were already elite. Jeff George’s arm attached to Cam Newton’s body. Both number 1 picks, no?

I suspect teams will offer a third, then a second round pick for Milton.

No need to trade him. Having a competent backup QB on the roster at a rookie pay scale is valuable.

If Maye goes down for a few games, I'd have confidence that Maye could do a decent job filling in.

 

[Kdo5]

A few more performances like that and he becomes a big trade chip.

No

He beat a Buffalo team resting their starters. The glazing of this guy is unbelievable.

 

[ScottishPatriots]

You can't read anything into Milton cause he was basically playing a pre season game against a team who weren't trying to win.

That's why we could've used the #1 Pick. It could've yielded us a pick that's still in the Top 5 or 6 and given us additional picks in this draft and probably another first round pick in 2026.

Yeah I can just feel that bidding war percolating among the NFL's havenot...

Yet Milton with all that physical ability played in college for 6yrs and was draft in the 6th round...

 

[NashuaPats]

Would asking for three first round picks for Milton be too much?

Nope start there

I was being sarcastic, but in a year with a crappy draft finding a diamond and dropping 4 picks isn’t all that bad.
