Joe Milton Player Summary:
The Positives
- Has a legitimate case for the strongest arm since Josh Allen
- Decent Athlete (though overrated in this aspect)
- Lightning Quick release
The Negatives
- Very inexperienced
- Gets mega tunnel vision on first read and cannot progress off of it
- Stands like a statue in the pocket
- Accuracy is all over the place
Milton is being referred to as this year’s Anthony Richardson, and we just do not see it. Milton does have an absolute cannon for an arm, and is a decent athlete, but that is really all he has going for him. He is nowhere near the athlete Richardson and his accuracy is far worse than AR’s. He gets locked onto his first reads and is as still as possible in the pocket. He is a major project and we would not be shocked if he is replaced at some point this season by mega recruit Nico Iamaleava.
