Martez Wilson is one of the few guys in the 2011 NFL Draft that I can call an athletic freak. His wing span is out of this world, his frame superb, and has a ton of speed to burn. His measureables are off the charts. I’m excited to see how he works out at the NFL Scouting Combine and Illinois Pro-Day. He has a unique skill set that many teams will covet come April. It’s rare for an Inside Linebacker to possess 4.5 speed, and also be able to stuff the run, and rush the passer. Wilson has a ton of upside. 3-4 teams will look to solicit his services on the outside, as an SOLB. He can be highly productive there because of his experience in coverage, quickness in change of direction and long arms. He would need to get stronger though. That positions requires a lot of stacking and shedding of Right Tackles and Tight Ends. Most draft analyst have him slated for the second round, but I think he will excel in every combine drill, and make his way into the first round. Players with his speed and versatility don’t last until the second round.
