As far as Miller goes, there was never much chance of him getting out of the top 5 picks, let alone dropping all the way to the 11th overall where the Texans were picking. After Miller's outstanding performance at the annual Senior Bowl All-Star game in Mobile, AL he was destined to be taken very, very high in that Draft. I dunno if there was any red flags on Miller in College Station ? I don't remember anything myself and thought his rep was one of solid character coming out of college ?
