The Cleveland Browns will have the opportunity to draft multiple starting-quality offensive tackles in the 2026 NFL Draft, and Clemson’s Blake Miller has a real chance to be one of them.
The Strongsville, OH, native just weighed in at 317 lbs. at the NFL Combine, which is incredibly helpful, as his biggest concern was bodyweight. A lot of teams believed that he was much lighter than that, as rumors were swirling that he played at around the 290-pound mark in 2025.
Miller is one of the most technically
sound offensive tackles in this year’s class, and his overall skill set fits what Todd Monken’s offense needs at offensive tackle.
He’s an excellent second-level mover and is consistently able to reach defenders both inside and out in order to wall off backside 3-techniques or seal the edge on outside zone.
His pass sets are beautiful as well when it comes to his kickslide and contact balance at the point of attack. Miller is very patient and times his punches very well, which consistently puts him in advantageous positions against speed rushers.
If he puts up some good testing numbers today at the combine, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Miller skyrocket up NFL Draft boards, as there are already rumblings going around that some teams have him rated higher than Monroe Freeling right now.
Blake Miller would be an excellent selection for Cleveland at No.24 or No.39 if they decide to select a wide receiver like Carnell Tate at No.6 next month.
