When you look at post-PED shortstops, Tulo is in his own league.  Nobody else is ISO over .180 and there's Tulo at .216.
I've said for quite awhile that Miller's upside is "Seager, except at shortstop."
That makes him potentially -- what -- healthy Stephen Drew (2008-10 version)?  That looks about right, except Miller ought to have more steals.
That's a mighty valuable player.  Fangraphs had Drew at 4.7 WAR in 2010.
Taylor's harder, as you say, particularly because there aren't a lot of shortstops who draw walks at a high rate.
I can see your Andrus comp, though I don't think Taylor's K% will be as low as Andrus or Reyes. 
Maybe Asdrubal Cabrera's 2009 season?  .308/.361/.438 and 2.9 WAR per Fangraphs.  Before Cabrera had a power spike in 2011.
Don't have time to look for more comps, but that's a rough idea.
