Who in the Hell is Muhammad Wilkerson?
So, I had never heard of this guy going into the season. There was nary a whisper about him all from the college ranks that I can recall. I also can't remember reading anything about him here either.
While being bored at work today I noticed him on the ESPN Scouts Inc draft page and his rating came in at a whopping 94. His height and weight were a very solid 6'5", 305lbs. He put up terrific stats (10 sacks, 1FF, 3PD, 13TFL) in just 11 games as a junior. The thing is, he played at Temple and thus played against pretty weak competition in the MAC.
Obviously there is a lack of information out there pertaining to his athletic ability and I'm very much a laymen when it comes to breaking down game footage but at the moment he certainly fits the profile for a 34DE. After looking at this video of Temple vs Penn State, he does a pretty good job against the PSU OL. He's kind of wild and undisciplined in the video but for all I know he might have the freedom to operate as he pleases out there being the best player on that team. He did a pretty good job holding the line with some obvious examples of being overpowered but also made a good amount of plays along the line of scrimmage when Temple was operating out of the 34. One thing is for sure, he has a great motor.
