Blake Miller — 2026 NFL Mock Draft Roundup 2.0

The Patriots get a potential right tackle successor for 35-year-old Morgan Moses. A first-team All-ACC selection, Miller made 54 career starts for the Tigers at RT.

After signing Braden Smith and Wyatt Teller in free agency, Houston's offensive line is in steadier shape. But both of those players will be in their 30s when the coming season begins. Miller is a battled-tested, athletic right tackle who would provide -- at the very least -- top tackle depth as a rookie.

The Texans continue their upgrade of the offensive line with Miller. Yes, they signed veteran right tackle Braden Smith in free agency, but the former Indianapolis Colt has battled injury in recent years, and Miller gives the Texans the long-term answer at the position. At 6-7 and 317 pounds, he has great size. He is a four-year starter and has great durability. Paired with 2025 second-round pick Aireontae Ersery, who starts at left tackle, Houston now has its bookends of the future to help keep C.J. Stroud upright for years to come. — Mike Jones

As they showed throughout the playoffs, the Patriots' offense still has a ways to go in terms of talent acquisition to stand tall against the best defenses in the league. To be fair, the Patriots had a top-five draft pick in the same season they made the Super Bowl, which highlights the overall lack of high-end talent, particularly on the offensive line. They can start to fix that with the selection of Miller, another gigantic, athletic tackle in this draft class.

The All-ACC right tackle might be too good to pass up — especially for lineman lover Howie Roseman — given Lane Johnson is in year-to-year mode and missed Philly's final eight games, including the playoffs, last season.

Broderick Jones has underwhelmed at left tackle. With Miller in the fold, Troy Fautanu could move to the blind side in Jones' place, thus clearing a spot for the rookie at RT.

You probably see an offensive tackle to San Francisco and think "Trent Williams heir apparent." But Miller actually played 97% of his college snaps on the right side. Perhaps he'd transition to left tackle if the Niners can't figure out Williams' contract situation, but I like Miller as an upgrade over Colton McKivitz on the right side regardless of what happens there. The 6-7, 317-pound Miller would bring consistency and reliability to this O-line. (San Francisco also signed Vederian Lowe as some insurance at left tackle.)

The Lions are reshuffling their offensive line this season, with Penei Sewell going from right to left tackle following the departure of Taylor Decker. Miller was one of these Clemson prospects that some might not value as much considering the Tigers' down season, but he has got a ton of experience and played well.
