I’ve looked at his pre draft QB rankings for the last four drafts and none of them seem wildly wrong.

2015 his top five were:
Winston, Mariota, Petty, Hundley, Grayson

2016
Goff, Wentz, Lynch, Hackenberg, Prescott

2017
Trubisky, Watson, Mahomes, Kizer, Webb

2018
Darnold, Allen, Rosen, Mayfield, Jackson


The order isn’t always right, but those were pretty much the top five in each of those years.  And he had them in roughly the right places in his big boards.

Is there one particular prediction he got wrong?  (And was it one that everyone got wrong that year?)

I can realise there’s a fair amount of scepticism about anything from Bleacher Report, but let’s not dismiss Miller’s thoughts entirely.

He was calling Josh Allen a top 5 pick in January 2017 after he signed with the same agency as him. Continued to die on that hill for most of the cycle and kept making excuses for Allen. Even said he was a better prospect than Mahomes.   

Just not a very good draft analyst imo.


That’s not much of a criticism.

A lot of pundits thought Allen was a top pick and some were even saying he could go number one.

And in the end he was picked seventh, so he wasn’t far wrong.

But you disagree with him, that’s fine.
