Drew Wilson brings a compact, physical linebacker frame to Minnesota
Wilson is a 6-0, 225-pound linebacker for Minnesota who arrived with first-team all-state and all-conference honors from Homestead High School, and he profiles as a tough, downhill defender with enough versatility to fit the Sam backer role. His appeal is less about gaudy stat lines and more about role fit: physicality, coachability, and a sturdy build that suggests he can hold up against Big Ten run games. For a team looking for a reliable, development-friendly linebacker with clear special-teams and depth value, Wilson is a sensible add.
