2024 Dynasty Rookie Early Look: Jalen Milroe, QB Alabama
Jalen Milroe burst onto the scene with a throw on fourth and goal from the 31-yard line with time expiring against Auburn.
Before that, he was an exciting prospect who came to the Crimson Tide in a recruiting coup by Nick Saban, who stole him out from under the nose of the Texas Longhorns. After an up-and-down college career, he declared for the 2025 NFL Draft and is an enticing prospect for fantasy fans.
Recruitment
The Crimson Tide landed one of the top QB recruits of the 2021 class in Milroe, in a class that interestingly enough had future Longhorns QB Quinn Ewers committing as an early enrollee to the Ohio State Buckeyes before eventually returning to Texas. Milroe was even recruited by then Bama offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian who would subsequently become the Longhorns coach and coach Ewers.
247Sports ranked Milroe as the QB14. Rivals placed him as the third-ranked dual quarterback, with On3 slotting him sixth at the position and ESPN 16th.
