Coynis Miller-Defensive tackle

Coynis Miller gave Auburn fans a few sweats late in his recruiting process as he flirted with a few other teams. However, he ultimately stuck with the Tigers, which was a huge win.

Auburn received a huge boost when Dontavious Russell decided to return for his senior season, which gives the Tigers both their starting defensive tackles from last year along with Derrick Brown.

However, depth behind those guys isn’t great.

Defensive line coach Rodney Garner likes to rotate 8-10 guys along that defensive front and Miller can help with that. At 6’1 and 300 pounds and loaded with Athleticism, Miller has the tools to see the field early and often in 2018.
