MIA • WR • #83
Considered by many to be a riser in the pre-draft process after turning out a strong performance at the Combine, Washington (5’8/191) still fell to round six. A five-year prospect who went for 111/1,384/9 in his first and only season at Virginia, Washington is a career slot man who totaled 40 or more receptions in each of his final three years. Washington’s final season was chock full of production. He went for 100 or more yards in 10 of the 12 games he played in, and forced a missed tackle on 31.5 percent of his receptions. His ability to force defenders to miss, or outright break their tackles will be a valuable trait for whatever team drafts him, and despite his height, Washington’s build is that of a player who can take a hit at the NFL level. Washington also returned 14 kicks in his final season and could have some utility on special teams. The Dolphins are going to find ways to put him in position to make big plays.
