Colts Draft Spotlight: LSU Guard Miles Frazier a Strong Mid-Round Fit
With the 2025 NFL Draft just a month away, it’s time to start looking at potential Indianapolis Colts targets. Today’s prospect spotlight focuses on LSU interior offensive lineman Miles Frazier, a versatile and physical lineman who could be a strong fit in Shane Steichen’s offense.
Background & College Career
Frazier began his college journey at Florida International as a three-star recruit, where he made an immediate impact, starting 11 games at left tackle and earning Freshman All-America honors in 2021. His impressive play led to a move to LSU, where he spent the next three seasons. At LSU, Frazier transitioned to the interior, starting games at left guard, right guard, and right tackle before settling in as the Tigers’ full-time right guard for his final two seasons.
Over his collegiate career, Frazier started 50 games, allowing just four sacks in three years with the Tigers. Notably, he gave up zero sacks in his senior season, proving his reliability in pass protection. His performance at the Reese’s Senior Bowl further solidified his standing as an intriguing mid-round prospect.

Scouting Report: Strengths & Weaknesses
Strengths:
- Versatility: Has experience playing both tackle and guard, making him a valuable asset on the offensive line.
- Powerful Run Blocker: Frazier thrives in gap run schemes, using his size and strength to dominate at the point of attack.
- Explosiveness: Quick out of his stance, allowing him to pull effectively and hit second-level defenders with force.
- Experience & Durability: 50 career starts across two programs, demonstrating consistency and durability.
Weaknesses:
- Core Strength Needs Improvement: Could benefit from an NFL strength program to enhance his anchor against power rushers.
- Pass Protection Technique: While competitive, he still needs refinement in hand placement and footwork.
- Limited Arm Length: At 32.75 inches, his arm length is on the shorter side for an NFL tackle, likely cementing his future as an interior lineman.
How Frazier Fits in Indianapolis
Colts GM Chris Ballard has emphasized the team’s need for interior offensive line depth in the middle rounds of the draft, and Frazier checks many of the boxes they look for. His versatility, explosiveness, and run-blocking ability make him a strong fit for Indianapolis’ offensive scheme. Additionally, offensive line coach Tony Sparano Jr. has a proven track record of developing linemen, making Frazier an intriguing developmental piece with starter upside.
If Frazier is available in the fourth round, expect the Colts to show significant interest. Even if they select an offensive lineman earlier in the draft, Frazier’s potential as a long-term piece on the interior could make him too good to pass up.
Other Prospects in the Colts’ Spotlight:
- DT T.J. Sanders (South Carolina)
- IOL Tyler Booker (Alabama)
- LB Kain Medrano (UCLA)
With the draft fast approaching, Frazier is a name Colts fans should keep an eye on as a potential mid-round addition to the offensive line.
