Quick Facts

  • Position: DT
  • Team: NO (New Orleans Saints)
  • Draft: 2026 NFL Draft (Saints)

Defensive tackle selected by New Orleans in 2026 draft (second round). While unlikely to begin his NFL career as an immediate starter, Miller is viewed as "my favorite interior defender in the class" by one evaluator—a prospect with the potential to provide "a massive boost in the trenches" for the Saints. The roster projection expects Miller, former first-round pick Bryan Bresee, and 2025 third-round pick Vernon Broughton to form a long-term starting trio, though Davon Godchaux and Nathan Shepherd occupy the current starting roles. Miller's NFL success timeline will depend on how quickly he transitions from college to the Saints' scheme while gaining experience in the trenches (per 2026 NFL Roster Projection: New Orleans Saints).

Accelerated opportunity due to Bresee injury (Aug 1): Bresee, the Saints' 2023 first-round pick, is believed to have torn his ACL during training camp practice, removing a key defensive piece from the interior line and forcing Miller to jump into immediate rotational duty alongside Broughton and 2024 sixth-round pick Khristian Boyd. Combined, Broughton and Boyd have just 101 snap experiences from last season; Miller will now be thrown into deep waters from the start of the regular season rather than easing in. His upside from Georgia's defensive tackle factory becomes more immediately relevant (per NFL training camp injuries Panic Meter: Where do these injuries rank?).
