Summer is here, and it is everyone’s favorite time of the year, scouting time. Every year, we do Summer Scouting to preview college football for Bucs fans, but also give them an idea of names to follow and watch in the fall as needs pop up for Tampa Bay. 

Are we going to write about quarterbacks? You know it, but why? Because other NFL teams will draft them, just as they will draft every other position. It all matters whether these players end up on the Bucs, the Bears, or the Steelers. We write these so Bucs fans can be the most informed fans. 

So if you are still with us, enjoy our latest Summer Scouting report as we prepare you for the Fall.

Player Summary

Blake Miller is one of the more seasoned pass blockers in all of college football heading into the 2025 season. Having started since he was a freshman, Miller has learned the hard way just how big, bad, and scary ACC defenders can be. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated good anchoring ability, the ability to recover, and the ability to be physical when needed. Miller has his fair share of issues to work on, but he is going to be as close to a finished product as anyone this year. That being said, he still deserves your attention this fall as he battles the ACC’s best for one more year.
