What can we expect from new Tennessee Titans 2020 first-round pick and offensive lineman Isaiah Wilson when he sees action in the NFL?
Well, if the 6-foot-6, 350-pound lineman’s top five college highlights are any indication, it’s a whole lot of pushing people around.
Wilson’s old school, the University of Georgia, released a top five highlights package on Twitter, and we like what we saw.

On the surface, Wilson seems to be a great fit with the Titans. For a team that loves to run the football, Tennessee is getting a road grader upfront in Wilson, who specializes in blocking for the run.
But there is a big hurdle between Wilson and a starting job at right tackle in 2020. Veteran swing tackle Dennis Kelly will be competing with him and could conceivably beat him out for the gig.
In fact, I have to give the edge to Kelly thanks to his years of experience — which includes being a solid starter in place of Jack Conklin in 2018 — and knowledge of how the Titans’ offense runs.
Regardless, at some point this absolute unit is going to get his opportunity to play at the next level and it’s going to be bad news for opposing defenders.
