On today’s episode of Longshore and McKnight, John and Barry focused heavily on Alabama’s presence in Green Bay, dissecting draft stock for Jalen Milroe and other Crimson Tide prospects. The hosts questioned whether Milroe could land in the first round, expressing skepticism over his NFL readiness, while also noting Alabama’s trio of invitees: Jihad Campbell, Tyler Booker, and Milroe. Comparisons were drawn to past Alabama quarterbacks, and Nick Saban’s draft-day presence was contrasted with new head coach Kalen DeBoer’s quieter approach. Auburn’s NFL draft outlook was bleak, with only Jarquez Hunter and Keandre Lambert-Smith likely to be selected late.
