Caleb Wilson 2019 NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Caleb Wilson<\/strong><\/a> enters the draft having finished his junior season at UCLA. Going into college he was a three-star recruit out of Gardena, CA with only three offers, including UCLA, (the other two were Central Arkansas and Old Dominion). At Serra High he was actually sharing quarterback duties with Khalil Tate<\/a><\/strong> before converting to tight end.<\/p>\n

Over his three years in Westwood, he turned himself into the go-to receiver in tough situations for three different quarterbacks. As a sophomore, with Josh Rosen<\/a><\/strong> at quarterback, Wilson had 38 catches for 490 in just five games, missing much of the season with an injury. He had 15 catches for 208 yards in the season opener against Texas A&M.<\/p>\n

In his junior season, Wilson finished with 60 receptions for 965 yards and four touchdowns. He became the primary receiver in \u201cmust-have\u201d situations for freshman quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson<\/a><\/strong>, as well as grad transfer quarterback Wilton Speight<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0Wilson averaged 16 yards per catch as a junior with a long of 66 yards. He was named All-Pac 12.<\/p>\n

Wilson also became one of the on-field leaders, when as a junior, he was one of the more game-experienced players on what was one of the four youngest teams in the country. He was frequently one of the players head coach Chip Kelly<\/a><\/strong> would put in the post-game press conference as a face and voice of the team.<\/p>\n
