So, Matt Miller thinks that Dexter Lawrence is overrated, and not worthy of a first round NFL pick? And, the same for Christian Wilkins?
At the same time, he thinks Debo Samuel is top 20, and Jake Bentley will go in the first round as Tom Brady's successor?
He must live in Colorado, and is smoking something.

Maybe he is correct about Dexter? Maybe not. He said some NFL scouts feel the same. Sounds like he needs to return for another year. We wish.

My assessment :
Dexter Lawrence , Christian Wilkins and Clelin Ferrell will all go before the 40th pick . Now , maybe one doesn't go 1st round ... but I have to think they all have a great chance to . When only 32 football players are chosen in the first round each draft having multiple players selected in that round is exceedingly difficult .
Throw in the fact that Trayvon Mullen , Mitch Hyatt and Tre Lamar as guys who could shoot up draft boards this season .. could be the best final draft un Clemson history in terms of the numbers taken overall . Joseph will be drafted , Huegel might get a look , Huggins will be a 2nd-4th rounder and with his elite speed and some improvements in pass coverage do not be surprised to see Tavien Feaster taken as a late rounder .
Those are off the top of my head . I'm thinking 6 to 8 Tigers are selected in the 2019 NFL draft .

Dumb ###. Nearly destroyed the Lions. What does this clown know about talent eval? Why is he still unemployed? Have those Fire Millen protests died down yet?

I think you're thinking of Matt Millen

This is Matt Miller of Bleacher Report. They're two completely different people.
Also, sadly Matt Millen, the guy you're thinking of, is currently in a battle for his life. He has a rare disease called amyloidosis. He needs a heart transplant and he has had to undergo chemotherapy once a week for the past year. He's still working as an analyst for the Big Ten Network though.

If these 'draft experts' were any good, they would be working for an NFL team. They provide click bait, fill airtime on talking head shows, and sell a few magazines.

Jeff George
Ryan Leaf
Tom Brady late 6th round
Joe Montana late 3rd round
Warren Moon not drafted
Terrel Davis late 6th round
