Interview With Christian Wilkins: Day 1 Practice

[Hoot]

Confident, joyful, hungry. This would be a fun dude to play some ball with. He's gonna make a significant impact on this team. A pillar of the franchise moving forward.

 

[BigNastyFish]

total Pro already...

 

[FinsGonnaRock06]

We keep drafting quality players like Christian Wilkens and we will finally be back to being a perennial playoff team in the very near future.

 

[SeasonsMusic]

He seems awesome

 

[FSU Truth]

Smart, great personality, you can easily see why Miami became enamored with him.

Between him and Fitz last year, we are headed in the right direction.

 

[rickd13]

When the f*** are those morons in the press ever going to figure out that the person asking the question needs to be mic'd up too.

 

[Danny]

You just want to root for the guy. He was calling other guys that got drafted to say congratulation? Wow. That's a natural leader.

 

[Phindog]

This kid is gonna big a huge part of this defense. He's gonna be very colorful.

His jersey's are gonna fly off the shelf,especially with Wake gone.

 

[H.P. Lovedrafts]

I love this young man!

Moment of silence for Wake....just cant shake Tannehill no matter what lol

Depending on Coach Flores and staff. Rosen giving the team some much well deserved good luck. And obviously injuries. Dolphins could have an interesting year. Unfortunately we seem to be lacking any real pass rush.

 

[Awsi Dooger]

It's like retreating in time 46 years or more. That's what Dolphin draftees always sounded like when I was a kid. I took it for granted. Amazing how the franchise itself loses track of priorities from time to time. Dion Jordan was hardly the first example. When we took Darryl Carlton in the first round in 1975 I couldn't believe it was the Dolphins doing it. Carlton looked and sounded like a human void.

Let's see, we exchanged roster #97 from Jordan Phillips to Christian Wilkins.

i think I'll take that

 

[Beach Bum]

It was funny that on draft day, I was telling my daughter after she got home from school that we drafted Wilkins. (I believe in drafting safe picks early on so we don't have another Dion Jordan situation.) She was like, aren't you really happy Dad? This is the guy you wanted. At first, I was a little confused until she reminded me that when we were watching one of the Clemson games last year and Wilkins was making all kinds of plays I was telling her that I would love to have him as a Dolphin. I am glad she reminded me. I had completely forgotten how good I was at scouting players. ;-) LOL!

Seriously, I am with you guys. I know we haven't seen him play, but so far I like what I see. What I am excited about the most is he seems like a natural leader. That should raise the bar!

 

[FinPhan54]

Can fans stop giving him the finger up and trying to jump with him? I can only see that ending badly.


That being said, when I see him for the first time out at a bar in Ft. Lauderdale, you best believe I'm jumping
