Expect 2012 NFL Draft Picks David Wilson and Jayron Hosley to Push Each Other
In the first and third rounds of the 2012 NFL Draft, the New York Giants selected Virginia Tech teammates David Wilson and Jayron Hosley, respectively. The Wilson selection was met with some skepticism, but after Reese explained he was the second best running back on their board, it made sense.
Hosley was met with equal or more skepticism, but not due to his ability. Most agree he...

New York Giants 2012 NFL Draft Profile: Virginia Tech RB David Wilson
Today we continue the theme of running back for the New York Giants 2012 NFL Draft profile series. With Brandon Jacobs out the door and no viable option behind incumbent Ahmad Bradshaw, Jerry Reese and his crew need to consider drafting a running back as early as possible, without reaching of course.

Virginia Tech RB David Wilson’s Pimped Out Car Is Pretty Sweet (Video)
Late in the Sugar Bowl between Michigan and Virginia Tech, ESPN showed a video of Hokies running back David Wilson’s pimped out ride. It probably was a bad idea, because everyone watching thought the same thing: this was a sure NCAA violation. The Key Play provided us with the picture and some background on the ride:

Fee Fi Foe Film: Virginia Tech
Stopping Virginia Tech's offense means stopping RB David Wilson.
Brian has covered the most important part of scouting Virginia Tech—how they fared against Duke, of course—but I figured I'd check out the tape of their ACC title game loss at the hands of Clemson and see if I could come up with any further insight on the Hokies. To be honest, my notes look much...

David Wilson files advisory committee paperwork
Is Wilson a top prospect?
Virginia Tech Hokies running back David Wilson has filed his paperwork with the NFL Draft advisory committee according to the Washington Post.
This is a relatively weak class for running backs, at least at the top of the board, and I would be mildly surprised if Wilson chose to return to school. He is probably a 2nd or 3rd-round prospect, and would be in...

(Eds: APNewsNow. Will be updated. With AP Photos.) By HANK KURZ Jr. AP Sports Writer David Wilson set a handful of lofty goals for himself when he became the starting tailback for No. 6 Virginia Tech.
The school's single-season and single-game rushing records. Twenty touchdowns, and at least one in every game. Averaging 6 yards per carry. All-ACC. All-American. Oh, and no fumbles...
