If that's the case, he was a poor draft choice.
As late as March 2007, he was ranked in the Top 50 players, some projections having him as a first-rounder (same with Tank - Rick Gosselin had him as a first round choice in March 2007 as well).
Wilkerson was a 6th. I don't think he was solid or spectacular, though for some reason, Tampa Bay seems to LOVE the Chiefs defensive lineman (Sims, Wilkerson and the bidding war for Allen).
I hope that Turk is a much more serviceable DE than JW. I hope he's a 5-8 sack guy a year and allows Hali to flourish.
