Depth DL with Size, Strength, and Developmental Upside
Washburn profiles as a sturdy, developmental defensive lineman with notable functional strength and a solid base against the run, which is reflected in his EA Sports College Football 27 ratings: 81 strength, 77 block shedding, 76 tackling, and 75 pursuit. He is also rated 91 for injury, suggesting a durable profile, but his overall 65 rating and modest movement metrics point to a player whose value is more about physicality and assignment soundness than twitch or pass-rush polish. For a team, he looks like a fit if you want a tough interior piece who can hold ground and do dirty work rather than headline the defensive line.
