STEVE MILLER

Miller is a defender that displays the ability to force offenses to account for his whereabouts. He has a great frame with good listed bulk, but on film still looks to be a kid with a lean build and he has plenty of room to pack on more good size. Displays a good get-off, but can be more consistent and can help him self at times by crowding the ball more. He looks to have a good reach and displays the ability to use it well. He will shoot his hands coming out of his stance and create and maintain separation. He can be tough to block one-on-one as he uses his hands and displays the ability to keep leverage. Despite having a lean build he displays good strength and can hold his ground and stretch plays out laterally. While he can be tough to run at especially if you just try and base block him he can also be disruptive from the backside. He can seem a little gangly like he is still getting comfortable in is body at times, but once he knows where he wants to get and goes he can move and has the ability to run plays down from behind. He needs to work on squeezing down and staying square. He has a good motor and is a good tackler. He has ability as a pass rusher and seems best at this point when he can take a wide rush. Will flash the ability to use his hands and can get the body lean to turn the corner. He does need to be more consistent with his weapons and increase his pass arsenal. Miller is a good defender. He displays the ability to be tough versus the run and pass and has nice continued upside physically and as a player.
