Tyree Wilson

Year 3 is the breakout — 4 sacks, 8 TFLs, 2 FFs already in 2025.

Wilson was the 7th overall pick in 2023 — and the first two seasons were a slow burn: just 3.5 and 4.5 sacks, both behind the production curve for a top-10 EDGE. 2025 is the breakout: his solo-tackle volume jumped from 14 → 24, his TFLs are at a career-high 8, and he's already at 4 sacks and 2 forced fumbles — both his career bests.

24 QB hits in 3 seasons — but only 12 sacks total. The pressure has always run ahead of the finish.

Across his first 3 seasons, Wilson has produced 24 QB hits to just 12 sacks — a 2:1 hit-to-sack ratio that's high for a player on the EDGE. The 2025 line tells a story of progress: only 6 QB hits, but 4 sacks at a much tighter 1.5:1 ratio.

Fewer near-misses, more finishes. The pressure rate may be coming down, but the conversion is climbing.

2025 TFL spike: 8 already — the production curve finally caught up to the 6'6", 271-lb frame.

Wilson came out of Texas Tech with a 6'6" / 271-lb / 35-inch arms frame that screamed elite-EDGE projection. The first two NFL seasons didn't show it — 8 TFLs combined across 2023-2024. 2025 alone has 8 TFLs, matching his entire previous career.

More importantly, the 24 solo tackles in 2025 doubled the 14 he posted in each of his first two years, and that's the cleanest sign of an EDGE who's playing more snaps and finishing more of them.

He has more career fumble recoveries (2) than career interceptions (0).

Wilson's takeaway profile is EDGE-classic — 4 forced fumbles, 2 fumble recoveries, and a single pass defense in 2025 as his first PD. No interceptions, no INT-returns, just the ball coming out on contact.

It fits the bend-the-arc archetype: hits land, the ball comes loose, and he's there for the live recovery. Both 2025 FFs are part of why this season has the highest impact-per-snap rate of his career so far.

First Raiders EDGE since Khalil Mack drafted in the top 10 — and the volume is starting to back it up.

Wilson was the highest Raiders defensive pick since Khalil Mack (#5 in 2014). After 2 seasons of pressure-without-production, his 2025 line — 24 solo tackles, 8 TFLs, 4 sacks, 6 QB hits, 2 FFs, 1 FR — is finally on a top-10 pick pace.

His career line through 3 seasons sits at 52 solo / 16 TFL / 12 sacks / 24 QB hits / 4 FF / 2 FR. Year 3 alone produced 46% of his career solo-tackle total — the inflection point a top-10 pick needs to hit before the franchise rebuilds around someone else.

Wilson vs his 2023 draft-class peers — pressure stats are real, sacks were the gap.

Wilson came into the league with a sky-high physical profile but in a draft class with two faster-producing EDGEs at the top (Anderson Jr., Verse). Through 3 NFL seasons:

- Wilson: 12 career sacks, 16 TFLs, 24 QB hits, 4 FFs - His 2024 season — 10 QB hits, 4.5 sacks — looked like a guy who was a half-step from a 10-sack season.

The 2025 line says the half-step is happening. 8 TFLs and 2 FFs are stats that show up in the box score regardless of the snap count, and they're the markers Raiders coaches will point to when defending the pick.
