The Kansas City Chiefs selected linebacker Ramik Wilson of Georgia with the 19th pick of the fourth round of the NFL Draft on Saturday.
Wilson (6-foot-2, 237 pounds) was credited with 243 tackles the past two season, including 18 for a loss. He was a second-team All-SEC choice in 2014. He was the 118th pick overall in the draft.
The skinny: “Wilson could use more thump in his game. He will occasionally flash explosiveness, but we don’t see it enough. Productive over the last two years, with ability to come in and help on special teams. Attack- oriented defense could turn Wilson into a more urgent player, but he might have to prove he can be more than just a backup linebacker.” — NFL.com
