The 2026 NFL Draft is right around the corner, and we've got you covered with in-depth scouting reports for all of this year's top prospects.
Clemson's Blake Miller is one of the top right tackle prospects in this class, with a proven track record of success across four years of starting experience for the Tigers. His polished skill set and ability to handle top competition over such a long stretch of action should make him as pro-ready as any tackle in this draft, and a potential first-round selection.
Here's everything NFL fans need to know about Miller heading into this year's draft:
Height: 6-6
Weight: 315
Age: 21
A four-year starter at right tackle, Miller has all the polish you’d expect from a prospect with that much starting experience against top competition. He uses his hands well at the point of attack, and shows a high-level understanding of angles and leverage to maintain balance and control against both speed and power rushers off the edge. Miller can deliver violent punches that force opposing rushers to re-evaluate their rush plan, he’s got smooth feet that mirror well in pass protection. There are glimpses of feisty finishing ability in the run game throughout his film, and his experience shines through in his ability to process stunts and twists and adjust his approach on the fly.
Miller’s flashes of power are intermittent, as he needs to find more consistency with where his hand strikes land and also when dropping anchor against power rushers. He shows some discomfort when working in space, struggling to effectively line up and neutralize his targets on the move. He has a hard time keeping his pads low to maintain proper leverage when working up to the second level, and savvy linebackers can expose his difficulties when taking proper angles to stay between them and the ball carrier.
There’s some inconsistency here that could turn some teams off, but Miller’s durability after making 54 straight starts should give NFL decision-makers confidence that he can work to address his deficiencies. Any offense that values the movement skills, intelligence and experience Miller brings to the table should find themselves an instant starter on the right side.
