Draft Profile: Bio
Blake Miller, a bruising offensive tackle from Strongsville, Ohio, has been a cornerstone of Clemson's offensive line since his arrival in 2022. The 6'6", 315-pounder quickly established himself as a force to be reckoned with, earning a starting spot at right tackle as a true freshman – a rare feat for the Tigers.

Miller's impact was immediate and significant. He started all 14 games in his freshman campaign, becoming only the third true freshman to start a season opener at offensive tackle for Clemson since 1944. His stellar performance earned him Freshman All-American honors from multiple publications. Miller's sophomore season was equally impressive, as he started 13 games and was named third-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).

The Ohio native's journey to Clemson is a testament to his talent and work ethic. At Strongsville High School, Miller was a two-way starter as a 14-year-old, showcasing his versatility and football IQ. He didn't allow a single sack in his junior and senior seasons, earning all-state, all-region, and all-district honors. His dominance on the field and in the weight room, where he still holds several school records, caught the attention of top college programs nationwide.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Exceptional durability, starting every game since his freshman year and logging over 1,900 offensive snaps
  • Impressive lateral agility allows him to effectively cut off wide-alignment rushers and mirror defenders
  • Displays good grip strength and quick hand replacement, improving his ability to sustain blocks
  • Demonstrates a developing mean streak in pass protection, playing through the whistle with upper body aggression
  • Versatile athlete with experience at both tackle positions and a background in wrestling and track
  • Shows good movement skills for pulling and lead blocking on screens and gap runs
  • Significantly improved block framing from freshman to sophomore year, indicating strong coachability
  • Reduced penalty count from 10 to 6 between his freshman and sophomore seasons, showing improved discipline
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Lacks ideal play strength, particularly evident in run blocking where he struggles to generate consistent displacement
  • Anchor in pass protection is inconsistent, leaving him vulnerable to power rushes and pull-swim combinations
  • Hand placement and timing need refinement, often arriving low and late in pass protection
  • Still prone to false start penalties, which accounted for a significant portion of his infractions
  • Footwork can break down when carrying rushers upfield, leading to balance issues at the top of the arc
Scouting Report: Summary
Miller's trajectory suggests a player on the rise, with the potential to develop into a solid NFL starter. His experience in Clemson's high-powered offense and ability to handle a heavy snap count bode well for his transition to the next level. While he needs to add functional strength and refine his technique, particularly in hand usage and anchoring, Miller's athleticism and quick feet make him an intriguing prospect for zone-blocking schemes.

Looking ahead, Miller projects as a developmental right tackle with the upside to become a reliable starter in the NFL. His best fit would be in an offense that emphasizes movement and can maximize his agility in space. As he continues to add mass to his frame and hone his technique, Miller could become a valuable asset in both pass protection and run blocking. Teams will be keeping a close eye on his senior season, watching for improvements in play strength and consistency that could elevate his draft stock significantly.

While there are areas for improvement, Miller's combination of size, athleticism, and college production make him an intriguing mid-round prospect with the potential to outperform his draft position given the right coaching and scheme fit.
