Miller’s athleticism was never questioned in his transition, but his ability to adapt and generate production as a true receiver became the scouting story early in the Buckeyes' season. His 2015 numbers aren’t jaw-dropping: 26 receptions, 341 receiving yards and three touchdowns, along with 260 yards rushing.

But NFL teams don’t draft on college production; they draft on potential, athletic ceiling and impact at the NFL level. Miller’s development into a full-time receiver isn’t complete yet, but his 2015 campaign proved he's much further along than any quarterback-receiver convert in recent NFL draft history.

And as he’ll show throughout the NFL draft process, Miller’s uniqueness as an athlete, his big-play threat in the open field and quick-learning mental makeup will allow him to emerge as a quietly coveted, starting-caliber receiver in the minds of NFL decision-makers.

He's a risk IMO. He can get by in college on his athleticism alone but in the NFL, to be a real productive player at the WR spot, he's going to need work.

Seems like a prime 4th round guy for us but I suspect after his combine, some yahoo will take him higher thinking they can polish him.
