Christian Miller smart pick for rebuilding Carolina Panthers defense

The Carolina Panthers have made it a point this draft to focus on getting younger defensively. Saturday, they did that while finding tremendous value in the later rounds. With the 115th pick in the fourth round, the team selected edge defender Christian Miller from Alabama.

Miller is a player that is definitely more of a tackler than one who can get after the quarterback. For Carolina, that is okay. They already took care of a player that puts pressure on the quarterback in Brian Burns. Miller really saw his stock rise during his time in Tuscaloosa.
