About Sawyer
Expert Analysis
Brian Jerzak | Prep Redzone Scout
Wilkie is one of those runners who doesn’t have one trait that sticks out on tape. That is not a knock on the soon-to-be senior – Wilkie can do a little bit of everything. He is not a burner but has the speed to get the corner on a sweep. The Panthers’ runner has the feet and vision to bounce runs outside or find a hole when the play doesn’t go as designed. He isn’t the biggest back, but his pad level and constantly moving feet make him an effective inside runner – and don’t try to arm tackle him. He will pick up a blitzer in pass protection and catch the ball out of the backfield.
