Milroe's attendance indicates the NFL thinks he is a likely first-round prospect. Milroe has already met with several NFL teams, including the New York Jets, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Cleveland Browns (Whose offensive coordinator, Tommy Rees, coached Milroe at Alabama).

With a little more than a week until 257 players have their lives changed forever, Milroe is continuing a busy ore-draft schedule. According to Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports, Milroe will have a private workout with the New York Giants, who are in a position to draft a quarterback to compete with Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston.

Milroe won't be the only quarterback the Giants are doing due diligence on, with Colorado signal caller Shedeur Sanders and Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough also working out with the Giants ahead of the draft.

The Giants aren't the only team working to see if Milroe is a good fit. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Milroe will also visit a pair of NFC West teams this week, visiting the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday before taking a trip to Los Angeles to visit with the Rams on Wednesday.

During his career at Alabama, Milroe passed for 6,016 yards and 45 touchdowns while rushing for 1,577 yards and 33 touchdowns.
