Draft Profile: Bio
Wyatt Milum, a 6'6", 312-pound offensive tackle from West Virginia, has emerged as a standout player in college football. Born and raised in Huntington, West Virginia, Milum's journey began at Spring Valley High, where he dominated as a two-way lineman and earned the prestigious Joe Stydahar Award as the state's top lineman.

Milum's collegiate career at West Virginia has been nothing short of impressive. He's started 32 of 36 games, including a streak of 31 consecutive starts. His junior year performance earned him All-Big 12 Conference Second Team honors and All-American Honorable Mention recognition. Milum's ability to protect the quarterback is evident in his clean sheet for 2023: zero sacks and quarterback hits allowed in 305 pass-blocking snaps.

The Mountaineer has shown consistent growth throughout his college tenure. As a freshman, he earned spots on multiple Freshman All-America Teams. His sophomore year saw him start all 12 games at left tackle, and by his junior year, he was grading out at 92% or better in 11 of 12 games. Milum's impact extends beyond pass protection, as he's been a key cog in West Virginia's potent rushing attack, which led Power 5 schools in rushing yards per game in 2023.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Elite pass protector with exceptional technique, allowing zero sacks or QB hits in 2023 and only nine pressures across 305 pass-blocking snaps.
  • Versatile lineman with experience at both tackle positions and willingness to learn center, enhancing his NFL stock.
  • Exceptional durability - started 31 consecutive games and logged over 2,200 offensive snaps.
  • Strong run blocker who helped lead West Virginia to the top rushing attack among Power 5 schools in 2023.
  • High football IQ and overall technical proficiency
  • Impressive athleticism for his size, demonstrated by his 92nd percentile 40-yard dash time of 5.00 seconds.
  • Proven track record of improvement each season, suggesting continued development potential at the next level.
  • High-character player with strong academic performance - multiple Academic All-Big 12 First Team selections.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Lacks ideal sand in his pants, potentially compromising his anchor against NFL power rushers.
  • May need time in an NFL strength program to add more functional mass and improve his ability to move bodies in the run game.
  • Could show more consistent knee bend and leverage when drive blocking, especially against stout NFL defensive fronts.
  • Hasn't faced a consistent diet of top-tier edge talent, which could lead to a steeper learning curve at the next level.
  • While showing positional versatility, lacks significant snaps on the interior, which may limit scheme flexibility early in his NFL career.
Scouting Report: Summary
Milum projects as a high-upside offensive tackle prospect with the potential to make an immediate impact in the NFL. His exceptional pass-blocking skills and versatility make him an attractive option for teams running zone-blocking schemes or offenses that prioritize pass protection. While he may need to add some bulk to his frame, Milum's athleticism and technical prowess should translate well to the pros.

Given his consistent improvement and stellar performance against Big 12 competition, Milum has the potential to be a day-one starter at either tackle position. His willingness to learn multiple positions, including center, adds to his value. Teams with established veteran linemen could view Milum as an excellent developmental prospect who could quickly grow into a cornerstone of their offensive line.

Milum's combination of on-field production, athleticism, and high character make him a possible first-day selection.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
