Jalen Milore is ready to learn where he will be playing professional football.

After 4 seasons at Alabama playing for Nick Saban and Kalen DeBoer, Milroe is set to begin his NFL career. He declared for the 2025 NFL Draft in January and has reportedly decided to attend the upcoming event in Green Bay.

The Milroe news may turn some heads among football fans. No draft attendee wants to have to make a decision at the end of Day 1 whether to come back for Day 2 or watch somewhere else. In February, Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports reported that the NFL planned to limit invitations to 8-10 players for the draft in Green Bay, presumably to avoid green room coverage of prospects drafted later than expected. That bodes well for Milroe’s draft stock, and may be an indication that the experts are missing something.

In late March, Ralph Vacchiano of FOX Sports mocked Milroe at No. 31 overall to the Tennessee Titans. Milroe is not included, however, in the latest Round 1 mock drafts from NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein (April 1) and Maurice Jones-Drew (April 3), as well as ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. (March 18) and Field Yates (April 2).

Plenty of fans around the college football world are curious to see how things work out for Milroe in the draft. Round 1 is set for April 24.
