BTW nearly every mock I've looked at had Wilson leaps and bounds ahead of McCourty. I liked Devin but didn't think Wilson would fall this far. I had nightmares thinking that chicken was scheming to take Wilson.
GREAT pick. GREAT value. GREAT player. Maybe some wanted Kindle, but this was a GREAT pick. Be happy!!!
I was terrified that we'd pick Hughes, Mays or Robinson. I would have been pissed off if we took Kindle with Wilson on the board.
Why was he there? If you told me we came out with him today, I would have said"How many picks did it cost us?" I liked him over Haden and now let's trade up and get Linval Joseph.
According to ESPN's Michael Smith's twitter: "Lotta irony in this pick. Eric Mangini, who drafted Darrelle Revis, told me he thought Wilson was the closest thing to Revis in the#NFLDraft"
I have faith in Tanny and our scouting team. I don't know much about this kid but I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Also remember why we didn't make it to the super bowl because the 2nd and 3rd receivers for Indy ate us up. We need three guys to cover now with teams like NO and Indy that have so many weapons.
all the haters I know there are some people bashing this pick but think about this... if we had wilson revis and cro we win the afc last year. Wilson will be used as a nickel player/punt returner and lowery can be moved to safety. i like the move and totally trust rex.
That's crazy. I'm not as schooled on Wilson as others but if he's that good of a prospect then that's awesome value for us.
