Zachary Miller still has untapped upside

Jaguars GM Gene Smith recently gushed about backup TE Zach Miller.  "He’s an off-the-line guy more than an on-the-line-guy at this point, but he has an outstanding skill-set for a #2 TE," Smith said.  "He has special qualities.  If Zach Miller was with another team, he’d be doing what Dallas Clark does with the Colts. He just doesn’t get many opportunities to get on the field.  He’s 6-4, 248 and  runs a 4.5 40-yard dash. He’s a tremendous athlete in terms of ball skills."  Miller has been on our radar since he was drafted in the 6th-round back in 2009.  But injuries and minimal opportunities have held him back.  And after Marcedes Lewis’ breakout campaign this past year, that’s unlikely to change in 2011.
