Who knows?
Could be anywhere from 2nd to 5th.
Last year, a lot of teams had Gabe Jackson as the best guard in the draft and he went in the middle of the third (though, after a terrific rookie season, in hindsight, he would have/should have been picked before a lot of the "tackles" did who ended up at guard who weren't anywhere close to his performance).
NFL teams get fascinated by "athleticism" and "speed" and power guys like Jackson and Larry Warford drop into the third round even though they actually end up being the best OG's at the next level because of their power. John Miller is very similar to Jackson and Warford and I think he'll make a terrific guard at the next level. He's fundamentally sound, is strong like bull, maintains his balance well and has excellent on-field awareness.
Right now, I'd say he'll go where Warford and Jackson went and he'll come off the board in the third.
