Really? I know the CB position is thin (thinner now), but that seems like a stretch to pencil in an inexperienced fourth-rounder as a starter.
Personally, I didn't think Wilson was going play all that much this year. Seemed like a bit of a long-term project considering he came out early and basically missed all of his sophomore year with a torn ACL.
Call my expectations lofty, but a 4th round cornerback in this draft could have been an overdrafted 2nd rounder in the Justin Gilbert draft, or any other year with a weaker talent pool. I also noticed last year's Browns defensive backs were just awful.

Wilson:
“It was kind of a freak thing. I was just running around and my knee just kind of locked up on me. I didn’t think much of it but the training staff wanted to get the proper testing so I got the MRI."
Oh, you're right, because our other corners are so talented....I never want to hear the name Channing Stribling mentioned again.
Thought it was interesting to see Boddy-Calhoun so high up with these other names.
That's also evidence that quarterbacks threw at him quite often when he was on the field, right?
I don't think so. The formula is (Ints+Pass defenses)/targets. Has more to do with playmaking per target than total number of targets. Unless you want to claim Norman, Grimes, and Peters were targeted a ton too..That's also evidence that quarterbacks threw at him quite often when he was on the field, right?
