What the analysts are saying
- "Wims is unproven in areas and his game lacks sophistication, but he is an ascending prospect with the physical traits and ball skills worth developing at the back end of the roster."
- Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout.com - "He created a highlight reel full of impressive catches in 2017, but he will have to prove he can free himself from press corners looking to jam his release and squat on underneath routes." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
