#21 Marvin Wilson vs miami (2020)

#21 MARVIN WILSON CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

Strengths: He has excellent size and strength on the interior defensive line and the versatility to play the 0- tech, 1-tech, or 3-technique positions. His lower body is explosive with tremendous power that drives through the play and he plays with the a high motor. He uses a great bull rush to the backfield with a firm grip and pulls or rip against the offensive blocker and will beat most one-on-one situations. Shedding blocks in a natural reflex and fills the run gaps instantly. He can take on the blocker and is athletic enough to trip up the ankles' runner or pull runner downs by leg or waist one-handed. He plays with a high motor and plays to the whistle blows, and he looks to make every tackle.

Weaknesses: One thing that sticks out initially on him is that he is not very athletic despite his ability to tackle and rush. He depends on his strength and power to beat the blocks and stopped with double-teamed blocks. He spends much time on the ground rushing by slant or chop blocks by the linemen. Lacking the athleticism will hurt his chances of being drafted early in the draft but become a steal in the mid-rounds.

Draft Projection: 4th-5th Round

NFL Comparison: Linval Joseph (Los Angeles Chargers)
