POSITIVES

Wilson is probably the fastest CB in this draft with track wheels. This speed allows him to recover quickly on plays and allows him to cover a ton of ground. Surprisingly physical player who isn't afraid to get his nose dirty in the run game. He's a smart player who rarely finds himself out of position. Wilson is a real head turner when it comes to measurables, with great leaping ability and impressive quickness and agility.

NEGATIVES

He’s undersized, especially in this draft and he isn't a strong as he plays. There are questions about Wilson getting beat up by bigger, stronger wide outs. Another part of his game that's lacking is his hands. For as many times he's up in the pass play, he should have more picks. Wilson tries to do too much with his speed, lets his technique get sloppy and isn't a very good tackler.

FINAL WORD

Wilson plays like a tack athlete in shoulder pads at times. Rest assured Josh, you crack that 4.3 mark and some team will draft you early, because you can't teach speed. He's got to get better in terms of strength and footwork because his ability to recover will be somewhat negated against NFL wide outs. To me, Wilson still is more athlete than football player, but most folks will tell you we can teach him how to play football, but we can't teach that kind of athletic ability.
