Christen Miller is a defensive line prospect from the University of Georgia who hopes to be taken in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Miller was an All-SEC defender during his time in Athens, developing into a key piece on the Georgia defense this past season. He looks to be the next defensive lineman to come out of Georgia, joining Jordan Davis, Jalen Carter and Mykel Williams.

What Georgia coach Kirby Smart said about Christen Miller

“C-Mill’s fun. He’s always got a big smile on his face. He loves football. I think that’s the overarching theme of a lot of teams have been he’s very talkative in meetings. He’s got a big personality, and I think it comes natural to him. He’s been a great asset for us.”

What Christen Miller brings to an NFL team

Miller anchored the No. 4 run defense in the nation last season, taking on a bigger role in the middle of the Georgia defense. Miller is at his best against the run, as he often soaked up multiple blockers to free up other teammates.

Because of how Georgia plays defense, Miller didn’t have a ton of chances to rush the passer. There is the thought that he may have some untapped potential in that regard.

Miller was a fan favorite during his time in Athens, as he has a very outgoing and personable personality. Miller also makes music in his free time.

As for where he might land come the 2026 NFL Draft, there is some thought he could go at the back half of the first round, with teams like the Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans as possible landing spots.

One team to watch would be the Atlanta Falcons, who do not pick until No. 48. Miller is from Ellenwood, Georgia, and made it known he would love to play for the hometown team. Atlanta had a very heavy presence at Georgia’s pro day back in March.
