Oakland Raiders rookie QB Tyler Wilson (Arkansas) has been looking good in recent OTAs and minicamp. In fact, there are several Oakland beat writer who believe he has looked better than veteran Matt Flynn.
Our View: No surprise here. Wilson was the top QB for both Cecil Lammey and Matt Waldman this year. He’s got a gunslinger mentality and is an aggressive passer who loves to challenge a defense vertically. We’ll wait until training camp before getting too excited about him beating out Flynn for the starting job in week one. However, many feel Wilson is the QB of the future and could take over at some point during the regular season.
