Excellent pass rushing IDL but if a teams gives him close to 20m that means he will be a 70%/80% snap guy for a guy that's never taken 50% of the snaps in his career. He will have to become an impact run defender on the interior to justify a massive paycheck.
Edit: Will Fries is another. He looked really good in 250 snaps in 2024 but in the 1500 snaps before that he was very inconsistent.
To further your point, this was Milton's first season with 40 pressures(according pff) and his first season with a pass rush win rate over 12( according to PFF). He also plays next to Jalen Carter which helps him out some.
Its also interesting to note that the Bengals were really high on him during the draft process.
