Pick Analysis:
Wilson was a productive, three-year starter for the Tar Heels. He is a tough, competitive player but has below-average athleticism. He understands how to leverage blockers with good pad level and hand use. He reacts to blocking schemes well to press back and restrict running lanes. Wilson doesn't have good initial quickness or speed to penetrate gaps and shows little range out of the tackle box. He only flashes as a power rusher and will need to expand his moves and counters to contribute in this phase of the game. Wilson is an overachiever who wins with toughness, instincts and technique and may struggle at the next level.
