Christian Wilkins thrives in a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front, leveraging his quickness and power to disrupt the backfield and occupy blockers.
He projects as a Year 1 starter at 3-technique, with the ceiling to be a Pro Bowl interior disruptor against both run and pass.
He would be a poor fit in a two-gap 3-4 scheme where his primary responsibility is to hold the point of attack and absorb blockers rather than penetrate.
Wilkins' blend of athleticism and strength make him a versatile interior lineman capable of excelling in an aggressive, attacking defensive line scheme.
Selected #13 overall in Round 1 of the 2019 NFL Draft by Miami Dolphins out of Clemson.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
