He did about as well as you could hope. His numbers across the board look pretty good. Obviously he measured out well too.

Hopefully he won't take himself out halfway through the combine
I was a big fan of Wilds throughout his career up until the last half of last season. His mouth, attitude and actions ruined all of that.
He figured it out...not giving 100%.
He was healthy but here are the results:
-One-note runner without the burst or wiggle to sneak through closing running lanes
-Limited by scheme-fit.
-Not suited for one-cut running.
-Balance is below average and doesn't have the speed to turn the corner against NFL linebackers.
-Tries to finish runs prematurely.
-Hands are just average as a pass catcher and will fall prey to occasional focus drops.
-Unpredictable in his response to blitz in protection.
Provided decent production during his run at South Carolina, but he never became the go-to chain mover that South Carolina hoped he might become. Wilds runs hard and will usually get what?s blocked, but he's lacking the creativity or athleticism to transcend his South Carolina tape.
I was always a Wilds fan. Watched him in a few hs games and thought he had a high ceiling. Disappointed in the way his USC career ended but I wish him well and hope he makes some good $$$ in the league.
