5-9 / 188 lbs

Positives: Shorter than you'd like … Well-built athlete with good overall definition … Rare timed speed … Rare physicality and toughness at the position … Reads the action well and is usually in good position to make a play on the ball … A competitor and won't back down to bigger wideouts … Adjusts well to the ball and is a good leaper, able to break up the pass at its highest point … Father, the late Tim Wilson, was fullback during Earl Campbell era for Houston … Takes his academics seriously … Has earned academic honors each of the past two seasons while majoring in business administration … Has had some of his best games against top competition, leading some to believe he'll be an even better pro than collegiate player … Obvious upside.

Negatives: More fast than quick … Doesn't have the instant acceleration out of his breaks that one might anticipate with his speed and size … A little stiff in the hips … Lack of size a concern against 6-foot-plus receivers so popular in today's NFL passing game … Likes to intimidate with his big hitting, but sometimes fails to wrap up.

This kid seems to have the skills to make him more than "just another fast guy".
