Everything (athleticism, production, tape) suggests Young will be a star in the NFL. That defensive line will be a top-eight unit this season. Potentially even better… Gibson is as raw as it gets (77 career touches) but his 4.39 speed and elite special teams production (28.0 yards per kickoff return) are intriguing traits. Washington announced him as a running back, not receiver, which lines up with what I saw on tape, but the receiving depth chart is more barren than the running back depth chart. He will likely be a low-volume gadget receiver as a rookie… Charles has Day 2 talent as a potential starting left tackle, but his off-field history gives him absolutely zero floor… Gandy-Golden is big (6’4/223) and productive (1,396 yards), but he faced a cupcake schedule and ran the forty in 4.60 seconds. He profiles as a low-volume downfield target. That’s a major position of need in Washington.
