Johnny Wilson

Eagles selected Florida State WR Johnny Wilson with the No. 185 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

One of the bigger receivers to come through the draft in recent memory, Wilson (6’6/231) topped out at 897 receiving yards in 2022 and closed out his career at Florida State with a line of 41-617-2 last year. He impressed with a 4.52 40-yard dash at the combine and could be used in a multitude of ways in the NFL. While it’s possible Wilson makes a switch to tight end or some kind of big slot role, the four-year prospect spent most of his career playing on the outside. For a player of his size, Wilson’s 42.6 percent contested catch rate is woefully underwhelming, but he averaged a solid 17.2 YPR for his career and had a 20.9 YPR in his first year with the Noles. He’s drawn criticism for his lack of polished route running and ball skills. Wilson will get time to develop while playing behind A.J. Brown and Devonta Smith early in his career.
