"Blake Miller is an ironman and model of consistency, starting 54 games in four seasons at Clemson. He's a solid player who has improved each year and brings a professional approach to development. I don't see the athleticism or awareness for him to be an instant NFL starter at tackle."
"He struggles with hand timing in pass protection...also gets beat on the edge when he plays like a catcher instead of a striker. At times, he struggles to anchor. He ends up on the ground too often."
The New England Patriots face significant needs heading into the April 30 draft, particularly at offensive tackle. After a disappointing Super Bowl and losing key players, the team must address its offensive line, which allowed 47 regular-season sacks and six in the Super Bowl. Blake Miller, a 6'7", 317-pound offensive tackle from Clemson, is frequently mentioned in mock drafts. However, CBS Sports' analyst Blake Brockermeyer expresses skepticism about Miller's potential as an immediate NFL starter, citing concerns about his athleticism and pass protection skills.
