Detroit Lions

Blake Miller

OLClemson
GradeA-

Checking in at 6' 6" and 317 pounds, Miller has the ideal size and strength for a starting right tackle. Having started 54 games for the Tigers (all but one at right tackle), Miller is an experienced prospect who only turned 22 in February. While there are some technique issues to clean up as a pass protector, Miller should be a starter for years to come.

How he fits with the Lions: Miller is a polished starter who should step in immediately and start for a Lions team attempting to replace longtime tackle Taylor Decker. With Penei Sewell potentially moving to the left side, Miller should stay in his natural position and give the Lions a strong front in 2026.
