Kris Wilson

Position: TE
College: Pittsburgh
Projected Selection: Round2

Pros: While not that big as tight ends go, Wilson has quickness and is also an excellent blocker...has soft hands and is very good at gaining yards after catch

Cons: Maybe a bit undersized as N.F.L. tIght ends go.

So no, not everyone thought he was going to go undrafted. And if I'd seen some of the game footage of him I've seen since we drafted him before we'd drafted him, I might very well have been on his bandwagon like I was on Kaeding's or Colbert's.
