Travis Wilson has good combination of size and strength for an NFL receiver. He runs good routes and does an excellent job of adjusting to the football while it is in the air. He is a physical receiver who will go over the middle and make a difficult catch in traffic. He also has enough speed to make plays down the field. Wilson is a reliable receiver with good hands, but he does have a tendency to “body catch” at times. He needs to improve his blocking to become a more complete receiver but he does have the size and strength to be effective in that area. Travis Wilson’s stock has gone down after a disappointing senior season; however, he has a good deal of upside and should find himself selected on the second day of the 2006 NFL draft.
