Seahawks need to give this rookie more time to develop

Milroe also had a hard time controlling the ball in his possession. While he accounted for 31 yards on seven carries, but fumbled the ball three times to the Packers defense. 

He knows that he needs to develop, but the game against the Packers, where they played a portion of their defensive starters, showed he has much more to work on, especially his pocket awareness and being more accurate in medium-yardage situations.

Milroe needs time to get comfortable in a professional lifestyle and with a pro offense. Sam Darnold is more experienced and poised to handle this offense than a rookie QB. Milroe could find himself playing in certain packages, but don’t expect much playing time this season unless things go wrong. 

Milroe has great athleticism, but he doesn’t have the confidence or passing ability to make the start at quarterback as a rookie that someone like Russell Wilson did in 2012. 

This shouldn’t be an insult to Milroe; it gives him a guideline for him to improve and potentially become a franchise quarterback later in his career.
