Payton Wilson Scouting Report

Strengths

Payton Wilson is a long linebacker who has tremendous athleticism. He is extremely fast, running the field very well. You’ll see people call him “rangy” which is absolutely fair. Wilson shows his high football IQ and has a nose for the ball. Truly, there isn’t much to dislike about his game, when he is on the field.

Weaknesses

Injury history. Wilson is an older prospect, turning 24 just before the draft. That is because he suffered multiple knee injuries that cost him seasons at NC State. Of course, he was able to come back and win the Butkus Award, but he does have an injury history with knee and shoulder injuries.

Wilson also has a bit of a slender frame. This isn’t a big deal in the ACC, but it could be an issue in the NFL. Of course, you could easily see this being a cause for health issues as well.

What to Expect From Payton Wilson in 2024

If Payton Wilson didn’t have the injury history he does, he wouldn’t have fallen this far in the 2024 NFL Draft. When he is healthy, he is going to be a difference-maker on the field for the Steelers. He flies all over the field and will be making plays left and right. Again, if he can find a way to play under control and be available all year long, we are talking about an absolute steal in the 2024 NFL Draft.

I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!
