    Miller is one heck of an athlete, but the question is does he have pass rush moves and the ability to lock on to an OT and beat him....?

      I dont think Miller is top 5 talent.

        Is he Mike Mamula?

        That's the only concern I have with him.

          I think that is way off base. He was incredibly productive over his college career, and was so playing multiple positions.

          I think Miller is about as certain as anyone in this draft. The kid can come off the edge like a terror, and that will translate to the NFL. He can rush the passer.

          The only question with him is if he has the kind of power to bull-rush and anchor against the run. He lacks the power of a guy like DeMarcus Ware.

          However, Mamula? No, Mamula was a great athlete but not an instinctive football player. Miller is a football player and a great edge rusher, I just wonder if he can anchor or power a guy.

            In most drafts I would agree, but this draft seems lack obvious top drawer talent - or at least top drawer talent without a list of questions following them around (i.e., Quinn, Bowers, Fairley, Newton, Gabbert, etc.).

              Sounds like the 2nd coming of Aaron Maybin...

                Don't be mistaken. Von Miller is NOT Aaron Maybin. For one thing Miller wasn't a one year wonder in college. And he's not a one-trick pony in terms of pass rushing moves. Plus he's not 185 lbs dripping wet either.

                  considering he's quite a bit bigger than maybin, and was productive over multiple seasons? No... this is a bad comparison.
                  My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

                  MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!

                    He's still more athlete than football player. His instincts Ill give you but his technique is very raw and he will needs lots of hands on coaching since he has never played a true LB spot.

                      I don't care as much about lbs they put on before the draft. When I look at size I look at their playing weight.

                      Von Miller played at 237 lbs.

                      Aaron Maybin played at 237 lbs.

                      Robert Quinn played at 265 lbs.

                      Brian Orakpo played at 255 lb lbs

                      Demarcus Ware played at 251 lbs

                        Well, why don't you look at how they played in College? Miller played very well over a long period of time unlike most on your list.

                          If at first you don't succeed, try, try again... ?

                          Sorry - the words "terrific edge rusher" strikes a note.

                          And I also expect more of a LB than rushing a passer.

                            Miller is not my first choice at #3 overall, and I'm still concerned that he might be small as a 3-4 rush linebacker, and could get pushed around in the run game by big athletic OTs. However, I don't think he equates to Aaron Maybin. He's not a one trick pony.
                            I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                            I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
