WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. – Players entering their second season generally make their most improvement. That's one reason the coaches have such high expectations for receiver Braxton Miller.

Miller, a third-round pick last year, spent his rookie season trying to learn how to play receiver. It's a position he played one season at Ohio State after making the switch from quarterback.

"I think all those guys that are going into their second year are much improved from what I see on the practice field," coach Bill O'Brien said Saturday. "Obviously, that's got to carry over into the games.

"Braxton's become a better route runner. He knows our system better, so now he can really concentrate on technique and not have to think about the plays all the time.

"He's worked really hard. He came on strong at the end of OTAs, and he's having a good camp."
