I will give you this. Wilson is the best middle linebacker in the draft.I'm not ignoring it. He isn't hurt now. He is a dominant player. Well worth the risk.

Footspeed isn't the concern with Wilson, injuries and availability are. No one runs a 4.4 on the trainer's table.LVE never ran anywhere close to 4.4. Watch the play against Notre Dame where Wilson runs a guy down 40 yards down the field. We are talking about the fastest linebacker in football.

As far as I know Wilson had successful knee and shoulder repairs and he is healthy now and doesn't have any neck or back issues. As far as I know he didn't miss any games in 2023. His upside is very high and being that he is a dominant player, I like him a lot.I think Dallas likes him that is why he is a 30 visit no doubt . I think your assessment of him is correct. When I say Wilson reminds me of LVE it’s not an insult. LVE was a top 5 linebacker in the NFL after his rookie season but that neck issue he had in college bit us in the booty his second season.
It will be very interesting where Wilson ends up. I don't think he will get by the 49ers and the Chiefs.Linebacker is like the running back position, they have many high impact collisions. Many tend to be just 1 contract players, which is why they are risky to take in rd 1. Wilson fits that category.

Looks like he is one of them. Hard not to like and he fits a huge need. Just an incredible player and athlete.Rambo, Wilson is your pet cat.
We are the cowboys; we can always screw up a draftMy biggest takeaway is that this is a stacked draft class and it's going to be hard for us to screw it up. The only 1st round candidates who would really tick me off are Guyton and Payton Wilson (injuries).
Dallas has shown time and again that if grades are close, they will take the athletic freak covered in red flags over the guy with solid tape. So if I had to guess, their 1st round shortlist is probably Mims, Guyton, Wilson, and Brian Thomas Jr.
Jonathan Brooks just feels like a lock for the second round. Total Jerry pick. Watch out for Trevin Wallace too.
My concern with Wilson isnt his 2024 play, its whether he will age well or if he winds up a guy like Lee that winds getting nicked up frequently. 3 season ending injuries, that tends to happen with guys like that.He is the best linebacker period. They sure put him back together well and he isn't hurt now. The fastest linebacker and with outstanding instincts and an incredible worth ethic and character.
I'd be shocked if he was there at 56. I think he goes between 24 and 40.My concern with Wilson isnt his 2024 play, its whether he will age well or if he winds up a guy like Lee that winds getting nicked up frequently. 3 season ending injuries, that tends to happen with guys like that.
Id feel alot better about Wilson at 56 than 24
That would be Payton Wilson.Right now I want a first pick that comes into camp snarling and eating live wolverines.
Wilson can do things that nobody else in this draft can do.LIke what I see of Payton Wilson. The age thing is garbage; its not like he is 27 and played eight years in college.
I would like him to be a little bigger but meh
the only debit is the injury and its not a back or shoulder or hip so I am cool with it
I just want someone we keep in a cage and feed raw meat to
