Davis picked up where Wilkins, Lawrence left off

When Christian Wilkins and Dexter Lawrence moved on to the NFL, everyone kind of wondered who might pick up where they left off.

Wilkins, who was a unanimous All-American in 2018, was one of the more decorated players in Clemson history. Lawrence was perhaps the most powerful defensive tackle the Tigers have ever had. The All-American took on double teams, and sometimes triple teams, on a regular basis.

Both guys went on to become first-round draft picks in the 2019 NFL Draft, Wilkins went to the Dolphins with the No. 13 pick, while Lawrence was selected at No.
