Mmmm. Close. Off by about 20 posts.

I'm not going to rip Wilson to defend Geno. I like Tyler Wilson. I just don't think this represents the true Geno more than his previous play. The reason players can be hard to project isn't just about changing scheme and the raised skill level. It's also about the fact players are likely to take an up and down line towards their peak, whatever that may be. Most are not going to take a straight line ascending up. Luck did that, and because of that a lot of people think any player without the straight line means they aren't worth taking early.

The difficulty is deciding which players will end up high on the scale once their line levels off. I don't think using Geno's "outbursts" are a smart way of going. I don't think Rivers is a parallel player emotionally. Too much speculating to sit here and talk about Geno's attitude, especially with some of the interviews he has done.

I have a feeling Wilson is going to come out of the pro days as the higher floor, Geno the higher ceiling. If we aren't there already.
