CBS Sports made some bold predictions this week for the NFL scouting combine that is taking place this week in Indianapolis and one of their predictions concerns Tennessee Vols quarterback Joe Milton.
And it's really not even that bold of a prediction.
CBS Sports thinks Milton will throw a ball at least 80 yards at the combine.
From CBS Sports: While he was unfathomably scattershot during his time at Michigan, his accuracy was reined in after transferring to Tennessee. That vital development led to him being a legitimate quarterback prospect. This is not hyperbole — Milton may have the strongest arm in the NFL next season. At an even 6-5 and 235 pounds, Milton sends the ball into orbit down the field. He was put on this Earth to send rockets to receivers at the intermediate level at unfathomable speeds. At the combine, Milton not concerned about oncoming defenders, will load up and launch a football 80 yards during the throwing session. I will love every second of that ball floating majestically through the air inside Lucas Oil Stadium. And it's going to be in the air for a while.
We already know that Milton can throw the ball 80 plus yards in the air. And while that's not the trait that Milton wants to define him as a quarterback, it's a trait that will ensure that he gets a shot in the NFL.
Ultimately, that's all any quarterback really wants in the NFL — a shot. And if a reputation for having a strong arm is what it takes for Milton to get that shot, then I'm sure he won't mind the national media fixating on how far he can throw the ball in Indianapolis.
