Milliner is not an elite man-to-man cover corner, but like Rogers, he has top-of-the-line instincts and recognition skills. Milliner plays with a lot of confidence and has the instincts to read a quarterback's eyes in zone coverage. He has good ball skills, is willing and able when needed in run support, and is just a very good overall player. Milliner is a first-round cornerback who's ready to step in and contribute right away. -- Todd McShay
