Scotty Miller

Miller signed with Atlanta this offseason and may take over for Damiere Byrd, who averaged 20.6 yards per catch last year, as the team's deep threat in 2023. A 2019 sixth-round pick, Miller posted more than 15 YPC in both of his first two campaigns, but he combined for less than 8.0 YPC between 2021 and 2022, including 23 receptions for 185 yards in 15 games for Tampa Bay last season. His best statistical showing came in 2020, when he posted a 33-501-3 line on 53 targets, but he'll have difficulty replicating those numbers while operating as the fourth or fifth pass-catching option in Atlanta's run-first offense.

Miller enjoyed exponentially better health during his second season than his rookie 2019 campaign, as the speedy Bowling Green product suited up for all 16 contests and produced a solid 33-501-3 receiving line that he complemented with 14 rushing yards. He saw 53 targets overall and scored a key touchdown in the NFC Championship Game, but he often took a back seat whenever Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown all were healthy in the second half of the season. Looking ahead to 2021, Miller presumably will open the campaign in the same No. 4 role in which he finished the team's Super Bowl run, but he could face competition from promising second-year wideout Tyler Johnson.

Miller's rookie 2019 campaign was a study in both perseverance and frustration, with injury the connective tissue between both. The speedy Bowling Green alum wasn't able to suit up until the Buccaneers' third preseason game due to a training camp hamstring pull, and he ultimately aggravated it Week 15. Miller saw action in 10 games overall, but he logged a modest 180 snaps from scrimmage and parlayed them into a 13-200-1 line. His wheels were evident over that small sample, as four of Miller's grabs went for 20 or more yards. The second-year pro will head into training camp looking to secure the No. 3 receiver job in the wake of Breshad Perriman's departure to the Jets in free agency, but he projects to face competition from rookie Tyler Johnson and third-year position mate Justin Watson.

As a rookie sixth-round pick, Miller will need to make an impression on special teams to stick on the final roster. Miller is undersized at 5-9, 174, so in that aspect he's a reasonable facsimile of departed slot receiver extraordinaire Adam Humphries. The speedster enjoyed a productive college career at Bowling Green (3,736 all-purpose yards in four seasons), and he's made a positive impression at OTAs. Miller's most secure path to a roster spot and fantasy relevance will be as a returner, with opportunities as a receiver likely to be at a premium early in his career due to multiple proven players slotting in ahead of him in the pecking order.
