With the 2024 college football campaign behind us, Pro Football Focus is ranking the best returning players at each position heading into the 2025 season.

PFF unveiled its ranking of the top 10 returning offensive tackles this week, and Clemson’s Blake Miller checked in at No. 7 on the list.

Miller is ranked in front of Indiana’s Carter Smith, Duke’s Brian Parker II and Wisconsin’s Riley Mahlman. Utah’s Spencer Fano leads the ranking at No. 1, with Miami’s Francis Mauigoa, Alabama’s Kadyn Proctor, Colorado’s Jordan Seaton, Notre Dame’s Aamil Wagner and Iowa’s Gennings Dunker rounding out the top six.

As a junior this past season, Miller played 944 snaps from scrimmage — second-most on the team — while starting all 14 games. The 6-foot-6, 315-pounder was one of 12 players to start all 14 games for the Tigers in 2024.

Miller, a former four-star prospect from Strongsville, Ohio, has started every game for Clemson at right tackle since arriving prior to the start of the 2022 season. He is a two-time All-ACC selection and earned freshman All-American honors in 2022.

Here’s what Pro Football Focus’s Max Chadwick had to say about Miller, who was a first-team All-ACC selection by both the conference and the AP in 2024:

Miller entered last season as our No. 6 tackle in America and stays around that spot a year later. He’s been a true ironman for the Tigers as he’s started every game at right tackle since his true freshman season. His 2,804 snaps since 2022 are the second most of any tackle in America.

Miller’s 77.3 career run-blocking grade is a top-30 mark of any tackle in America over the last three seasons and he’s coming off a career-best 76.4 pass-blocking grade in 2024 as well. He’s as reliable as they come and should be one of the most decorated offensive linemen in Clemson history when he heads to the NFL.

Miller became the first offensive or defensive player to start every game played by Clemson in each of his freshman, sophomore and junior years since Clelin Ferrell from 2016-18, after Ferrell redshirted in 2015. Miller was the first Clemson player to do so without the benefit of a redshirt year since offensive linemen Jim Bundren and Glenn Rountree started all 47 of Clemson’s games from 1994-97.

Miller is one of six players on record in Clemson history (Mitch Hyatt, Jay Guillermo, Dalton Freeman, Deshaun Watson and Tajh Boyd) with multiple 950-snap seasons and joins Hyatt as one of only two Clemson offensive tackles on record back to 1986 to record multiple seasons with 950-plus snaps from scrimmage.

Miller heads into his upcoming senior campaign with the ninth-most career snaps from scrimmage on record in Clemson history and concluded last season as one of 28 players on record in school history to play 2,500 career snaps from scrimmage.
