Player Overview
A two-year starter at Florida, Wilson was part of a deep cornerback depth chart for the Gators, but the coaches couldn't keep him off the field.
After sharing the starting duties as a sophomore, Wilson started all 13 games in 2016 as a junior, primarily at right cornerback, and finished second on the team in passes defended (nine) and interceptions (three) to earn Second Team All-SEC honors. He is a big athlete with several of the physical ingredients at the position that has NFL scouts optimistic, but he is more smooth than sudden and struggles to stick with wideouts at the top of routes, especially if he doesn't disrupt the route at the line of scrimmage. Although he has the ballskills and awareness to make impact plays in coverage, Wilson often takes too many chances, leading to mistakes and receivers gaining easy separation. He also has the size and toughness to be a reliable run defender, but his streaky tackling mechanics allowed offenses to run at him with success. While there is plenty to like about him as a cornerback prospect, Wilson has the skill-set that might be better suited at safety.



Strengths Weaknesses
STRENGTHS: Looks the part with a well-built, long frame. Balanced athlete with the smooth turn-and-run skills to stay within arm length of receivers. Has enough speed to stay on top of wideouts when he correctly anticipates the route. Looks to get physical in press coverage with violent hands, but also stays controlled with his jabs. Fearless run defender and drives on the ball while keeping outside leverage. Uses his long arms to take away passing lanes with NFL ballskills to do wide receiver-like things at the catch point. Carries himself with supreme confidence and a short memory. Cornerback bloodlines - father (Chad) played cornerback for Miami (Fla.) from 1992-94 and coached defensive backs at University.

WEAKNESSES: Doesn't play with ideal suddenness for the NFL. Has the initial acceleration to stick with receivers, but his speed trails off. Inconsistent, lazy technique in his pedal, making it easy on savvy receivers to gain separation at the stem. Undisciplined eyes and late to adjust and drive on routes. Poor timing in coverage and caught leaning, lacking explosive hips or recovery burst. Too much contact downfield and will make it easy on officials to throw flags. Inconsistent tackling mechanics and is often caught on his heels or goes too low on tackle attempts, not finishing through the body of his target. Needs to control his emotions on the field, drawing a personal foul penalty against Tennessee (Sept. 2016).

Draft Tec has us taken him in the first rd

In the game film I reviewed, Mr. Wilson exhibits the physical traits Dallas likes in a CB with a well-built, long frame. I see excellent balance in his back-pedal, with the smooth turn-and-run skills to stay within arm's length of receivers. Quincy has enough speed to stay on top of WRs when he anticipates the route. He maintains physicality in press coverage with his hand positioning, but also stays controlled with his jabs. His long arms provide 2 advantages: 1) take away passing lanes and 2) give him ball skills of a WR at the catch point. Wilson is a strong run defender and drives on the ball while maintaining outside leverage. The Cowboys' defensive backfield just overcame the first F/A departure

Sources Tell Us "He may not be that clean with his coverage but I would rather go to war with him over (Teez) Tabor any day. He's big and he's tough. Tabor has more talent but Wilson just has to find the right spot because he's got the mindset to be a pro player." -- AFC executive

NFL Comparison Tre' Boston

Bottom Line Wilson rose to prominence this year after finishing with three interceptions and allowing fewer than 40 percent of the passes his way to be completed. His size and physicality combined with issues in staying glued to quick receivers could lead him to the safety spot where his instincts, ball skills and willingness to tackle will all serve him well.


what I am thinking if we want Tarell Basham, DE Ohio hes already ranked in the 2nd

an I am that we might have to get him in the first after the combine

That's my concern as well, that if the draft falls that we end up taking a corner first, that we will have to trade up, ala DeMarcus Lawrence (2nd and 3rd round picks) to get Basham or someone like him. Not gonna want to part with multiple picks for one player again, we always seem to get burnt when doing that.

I wouldn't be too terribly disappointed if we landed Wilson but there are other corners I like better.

Lattimore, Humphrey and Jourdan Lewis are 3 I like a lot.

Yeah well hopefully McClay is able to reel Jerry away doing something like that. It definitely would be a Jerry move though. I'd rather gamble on a small school prospect like Hendrickson, Rivers, or someone else like Willis or Bowser. After the top 5 or 6, there really 1 DE that jumps out as better than the rest, just a group of another maybe 6 or 7 that could all go either way. At least in my opinion.

I've liked him for awhile. Stood out while watching Florida and looked equal to Tabor. Couldn't understand why so few were talking him up. Felt he'd be a great fit here. I think he's pretty similar to Brandon Carr in playing style, but much more physical in run support.

Depends what he runs. If he's a 4.55+ then he's in the same boat as Desmond King, needing to move to Safety. He'd be great, but it's redundant for us and I'd rather look elsewhere. But he looked faster than that to me.

We could draft the next Deion Sanders, but with zero pass rush he would look like a scrub.

This 40 talk is absurd when guys like josh Norman just got 70 mil and ran a 4.6

People automatically assume a small guy is a slot cb and a 4.5 guy USA safety convert. Lol king is a convert because of height/arm length/speed. Wilson has height and arm length. I'm pretty certain he'll run better than Josh Norman. Marcus peters ran a 4.5 as well

He's big, but plays scared. I didn't like any game tape that I watched. He can cover decent, but tackles, and moves to the ball in utter fear. I'd pass on him in the first for sure. He's a bit overrated.

Man, I've yet to see anything physical about this guy. He has the size, but doesn't use it like he should.
