PRO’S
Wilson is a dependable WR, showing the knack to find space when the QB has broken outside of the pocket and is looking down field for a target. Great feet/body control at the LOS, does a great job of avoiding press/releasing cleanly. Explosive athlete, came in at #73 on Bruce Feldman’s Freaks List in August (4.33 40, 6.20 3 cone, 3.77 shuttle). Dangerous in 1 on 1 situations, great footskills/agility and the explosiveness to separate once he’s gotten the defender out of position. Smooth/Lightning quick in and out of his breaks. Wilson has strong hands, only dropping 3 passes over the last 2 seasons.
CON’S
Size & frame, though Wilson has shown toughness and the ability to avoid contact, I worry about him holding up at the next level if given a larger percentage of the offensive touches than he did in college. I believe Wilson will be limited to a role as a slot receiver. Wilson doesn’t provide much in the run game as a blocker. Though Wilson has the ability to run away from defenders in YAC situations, he does not show the ability to consistently break tackles and be a threat in this area. Will be 23 during his rookie season.
OVERALL
Wilson was given limited opportunities to showcase his abilities while in the Michigan offense but regularly flashed when given the chance. Roman arrived in Mobile for the Reese’s Senior Bowl and proved he deserves to be mentioned with some of the top names in this receiving class. Wilson absolutely tore up defenders at the Reese’s Senior Bowl and is an ascending prospect who has likely put himself in the 2nd/3rd round conversation. Jim Nagy, the director of the Senior Bowl, compared Wilson to Tyler Lockett. If Lockett is Wilson’s ceiling, sign me up!
