Notes
Darnell Washington’s NFL Draft Profile on SI.com
Washington is ready to contribute on special teams and as a blocker early in his rookie season. He has experience playing in the slot but primarily served as an in-line tight end with the Bulldogs. Washington’s massive frame with ideal functional strength gives him an advantage over most opponents. He appears to have exceptional arm length, which contributes to his commanding profile as a blocker. This past season, Washington imposed his will on defensive linemen like Oregon’s Brandon Dorlus. He effortlessly seals defenders, occasionally finishes defenders to the ground, and shows plenty of pop in his hands. Washington’s athleticism allows him to operate as the lead blocker on runs and screens, and he looks comfortable pulling for gap runs. On the perimeter, Washington’s size and power allow him to overwhelm defensive backs.
