First, they need to determine who the DC will be and if they run a 4-3 or a 3-4. Miller would be a great addition in a 3-4 as a rush LB (although Barwin might be the best candidate for that role). Miller gets upfield very fast and puts pressure on the opponents to adjust. Remember the Cowboys (if the DC is Wade Phillips and he switches us to a 3-4) drafted Demarcus Ware in just about the same spot and he instantly upgraded the Cowboys' defense.
I'm not saying this is exactly how I'd go (is there a CB worth that high a pick?) but if we go 3-4 then Miller becomes a solid pick at that slot.
