RIVALS' REACTION
Wilson is every bit the 6-foot-3, 275 pounds he's listed at and what makes him such a difficult matchup for offensive linemen is his combination of quickness and strength at the snap. On some plays, Wilson is in the backfield before offensive linemen are able to get a hand on him. He does a good job collapsing the pocket but he is also the type of defensive lineman who's able to shoot gaps and get penetration. Wilson thrives on using his versatility to his advantage and can consistently beat the man in front of him if he is not double-teamed.
