Scouting Report
Washington has no shortage of speed and athleticism. When he camped with the Gophers this week, he reportedly ran a hand-timed 4.5 40-yard dash. On film, Washington is decisive once he has the ball and sees a running lane. He hits the hole and gets downhill fast. There are a couple highlights where he slips through the cracks between his blockers and gets to the second level in the blink of an eye. Washington can also catch the ball out of the backfield and is dangerous when he has a lot of green in front of him. This coaching staff has a proven track record with running backs, so even if Washington is lightly recruited, I’m inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt.
