2. Christian Wilkins

Wilkins is the heart and soul of this Clemson football team.

He is the unquestioned leader and is a great encourager for guys on the team. I love what Wilkins brings to the table.

Obviously, he is a great defensive tackle who knows how to create havoc on the interior of the defensive line.

But, he is also the first guy to meet and celebrate win a fellow teammate after a touchdown. That kind of spirit, determination and leadership is infectious.

He makes the whole team better- offense, defense and special teams- because of the attitude, work ethic and effort he brings to the table each and every game.
