DanielOnorato Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 I've been rewatching a lot of college football (mainly sec) from the past 10+ years and seeing Cam Newton again really reminds me of Jalen Milroe. Does anyone else see the comparison? If not, who would you compare Milroe to? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothinButDaHorns34 Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Milroe is NOTHING like cameron newton. Milroe is a glorified running back playing qb. QB won’t be his position in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashtag Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 I think Jalen Hurts is the better comparison. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wabi Sabi Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 I'd go Lamar Jackson... Both have agility and speed, run tough but elusive, have cannons but struggle with touch on the short - intermediate throws. Cam was a bruiser (at least as far as running QBs go) with enough speed to burn ya. Tebow was probably a decent comp to Cam, from a running style. But Cam had a better arm. And LOUD game day attire. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted October 3 Moderators Share Posted October 3 Good topic for discussion IMO Cam was the best NFL level passer of the elite dual threat QB's I have seen, including VY. Those were the two freaks of freaks in that regard. Tebow was the lowest ranked from a passer standpoint IMO. Lamar Jackson and Milroe is interesting. Kalen Deboer is giving Milroe a shot to show real ability this season, as he will absolutely maximize what he can do - NFL won't have to wonder. I will say this, Milroe may be the biggest/fastest combo guy I have seen. Would it be a surprise if he run 4.37'ish at 230 pounds at the NFL combine? Not for me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah. Milroe throws a much better deep ball than Lamar and Lamar is a far better intermediate thrower than Milroe. Also Lamar is more of a juke side to side guy where as Milroe is a cut and go guy.

Just because he goes pro doesn't mean he won't keep improving. I think he could end up QB or RB depending on who drafts him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sark recruited Milroe for Bama as QB, Sark doesn’t recruit QBs that can’t make all the throws. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
