The 2019 NFL Draft is underway in Nashville, and FTW’s lead NFL writer Steven Ruiz is grading picks and offering analysis on how each player will fit with his new team.
No. 13: Christian Wilkins, DT, Clemson
Analysis: I don’t see anyway Miami ends up regretting this pick. Brian Flores came up under Bill Belichick, and this pick is right out of his playbook. Belichick loves players who are “smart, tough and reliable”and Christian Wilkins is all of those things. He’s also a freaky athlete with pass rush moves. He’ll be a difference-maker at the defensive tackle position. The Dolphins got a good player.
