Offensive lineman Kolton Miller moved from right to left tackle in his senior season, after missing most of his junior year with a foot injury. He played two years on the right, and moving to the left meant that it was up to him to protect UCLA’s bread and butter, Josh Rosen. 2017 was a good year for him, bringing him back to the form that earned him four stars coming out of high school, and his performance was also enough to get him second-team All-Pac-12 recognition.
If you’re into numbers, here are a few to prove Miller’s worth: he allowed just two sacks, six hits and eight hurries in 579 pass blocking snaps, and he reduced the number of hurries allowed each year, from 17 two seasons ago to 11 in 2017.
