Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Wilson might be of most interest due to the fact he'll compete against Matt Flynn for the starting job in Oakland -- and we all remember what happened to the last rookie, Russell Wilson, who went up against Flynn, right? According to Matt Waldman's
Rookie Scouting Portfolio, what Wilson has on the rest of this class is a good combination of aggressive, down field accuracy, pocket management and toughness, and skill to make plays off balance on the move. Although different players, Waldman believes that Wilson and Ryan Tannehill would have been a close call to rank if in same class last year. Waldman's bottom line? Wilson can be a long-term starter, but no worse than a long-term contributor.
