Scouting Report: Strengths
- Awareness is above-average for his limited experience. Sells trap block and can turn to seal. Fluid getting to and adjust at the second level.
- Hand placement is excellent, and Wilson shows a good understanding of angles when climbing upfield
- Solid positional run blocker who flashes the nasty demeanor and killer instinct scouts covet.
- Mauler in the run game, playing with a nasty disposition and showing excellent snap and punch quickness.
- Effective grappling in the phone booth, with the upper-body strength and strong hands to outbattle defenders. Wilson also shows a good understanding of angles when moving out to the second level
- As a pass protector, he plays with good balance and holds up against the bull rush. Wilson has strong hands and does a nice job gripping and latching on once he has his hands on the pass rusher.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Has a bad habit of panicking on reach blocks, lunging, and grabbing rather than trusting his athleticism to get him in position, which could lead to frequent flags for holding.
- Good upper-body strength but must improve his core strength. Better suited to a zone-blocking system because of his athleticism.
- Can struggle to stay engaged, especially on the second level. His hand placement can be sloppy, costing him power.
