Ohio State (North Team) -(6-2, 215) Projected Round –2nd-3rd–Jersey #1

Braxton Miller spent most of his career at Ohio State playing quarterback and he was a very good one too.  Good enough to finish fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting in 2013.  However, Miller missed the 2014 season with a shoulder injury and switched to wide receiver for the 2015 season.

Miller finished the season with 26 catches for 341 yards and 3 TD’s.  Proving that he’s capable of playing the position and with more time at it he could become a very good one.  Miller showed flashes of this potential in college and he will likely fulfill it in the NFL.

He has good size at 6’2, 215 and that’s something the Redskins lack at wide receiver.  So Miller could fill a need and his upside could be huge.  For now Miller is rated in the 2nd to 3rd round range but that could go higher if he’s shows well in the Senior Bowl.
