Could he work in our defense?
If we move Wilfork to DE and let Love take over at NT, we could stand Miller up on Wilfork's outside shoulder on Mayo's side of the defense.
What does that do? If makes running that way really hard (by going through Wilfork and Mayo, with presumably Chung filling), even though Miller does not project as a sturdy run stopper and it upgrades pass rushing, via Miller, nearly 100% over Ninkovich or TBC while also improving coverage, again via Miller.
The other side of the defense would have Ty Warren with some combination of Cunningham, Spikes, Guyton, Ninkovich and Fletcher.
The suddenness of Miller coming off the edge would cause opposing offenses to slide coverage which opens huge lanes for Spikes or Guyton or Fletcher to blitz through.
So could OLB Miller work in our defense?
