In addition to size there is something else the Washington Redskins need to add at the wide receiver position and that’s speed.  Especially if DeSean Jackson is released in the offseason and speed is something that Malcolm Mitchell brings to the table.

He is a dangerous deep threat but never really lived up to his potential at Georgia.  However, like many prospects out of Georgia some of them end becoming much better players in the NFL than they do in college.

I think this may be the case with Malcom Mitchell.  The Redskins found a good receiver in the fourth round of the 2015 draft in Jamison Crowder and Malcolm Mitchell could be another good addition in that area.
