A versatile linebacker, his optimal fit is within schemes that prioritize athletic, sideline-to-sideline playmaking and a strong pass-rushing element from the second level.
Year 1 impact as a rotational pass rusher and special teams ace with a ceiling as an every-down 4-3 Will or 3-4 inside linebacker.
Pure two-gap 3-4 schemes that require a large, stout run-stuffing inside linebacker who rarely blitzes or drops into coverage.
Washington's athleticism and pass-rushing prowess make him a strong fit for modern defenses that value speed, coverage ability, and versatility at the linebacker position.
Selected #47 overall in Round 2 of the 2010 NFL Draft by Arizona Cardinals out of TCU.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
