More impact plays from 2019 1st-round pick Christian Wilkins
Speaking of the defensive side of the football, 2019 rookie Christian Wilkins is going to be in line for a big leap in the caliber of his play this upcoming season. Wilkins was slow to get started last year but by the end of the year he appeared to have his bearings as a professional defensive lineman. Given his status as the centerpiece of Miami’s first draft under Flores and Grier, Wilkins’ improvement will be a telling preview for not just his long-term prospects but it will also inspire hope that the rest of the roster can follow suit.
Surrounded by more talented players, Wilkins has everything he needs to break out.
