Usually, having a breakout season en route to a National Championship team while playing for a powerhouse school is about as good of a boost to draft stock as a player can get.
Michigan’s Roman Wilson, however, hasn’t gotten the bump that you would expect. Part of it is due to the depth of the receiver position in this year’s draft class. Likewise, while Wilson is an excellent athlete, he doesn’t have the measurables that normally generate excitement among scouts and the media. And finally, Wilson was a bit hidden by Michigan’s offense.
But could that mean that he’s a potential hidden gem who could explode onto the scene in the NFL?
