Jaguars Target Georgia DT Christen Miller in Draft

The Jaguars hope to strengthen their interior defense by selecting Georgia defensive tackle Christen Miller, who excelled in run defense and has pass‑rush potential.

The Jacksonville Jaguars need depth and competition on the interior defensive line, especially after a top‑rank run defense last season. They see Georgia tackle Christen Miller as the ideal addition, a 6‑ft‑4, 310‑lb player who posted a 90.2 PFF run‑defense grade in 2025 and an 11.3 pass‑rush win rate from the interior.

Miller has logged over 1,000 defensive snaps in three seasons, recording 38 pressures and a sack, and is ranked fifth among defensive tackles on Mel Kiper’s board. While he may fall to the Jaguars in the later first‑round or early second‑round, the team views him as their best‑case scenario to boost pass‑rush presence.
