Strengths: A big time player in the Atlantic 10 Conference. He has a very good handle, a super-sweet 3 pt stroke and the ability to take guys off the dribble. He is also incredibly intense and hard working. Look for 2005-06 to be Burrell's coming out party. He is head and shoulders above the talent level of previous Xavier draftees Sato and Chalmers. Right now he is playing the 2 spot, but his handle and passing skills are strong enough to handle the PG position.

Weaknesses: Not high on anyones radar screen as X didn't make the NCAA tournament last year and plays in the witness protection program that is the Atlantic 10. Small for the off guard position and unproven as a PG... Must prove he can play the point, and may not have much of a chance to prove it this year, and especially next season with Drew Lavender coming in ... Xavier is so desperate for scoring that Miller may be scared to move him to the 1 and have his production fall off.
