Washington Football Team WR Dyami Brown

The role Dyami Brown will fill for the Washington Football Team is much more clear than St-Juste. Dyami Brown was drafted by the Washington Football Team to inject more big-play ability into an offense that lacked it in 2020.

Brown’s two best traits as a prospect were his ability to track the ball in the air and his above-average deep speed. He put that on display in minicamp, receiving multiple deep passes from both Taylor Heinicke and Ryan Fitzpatrick. One of those passes included a 45-yard touchdown, against the other player featured in this article, Benjamin St-Juste.

Reporters, like Lake Lewis, who attended minicamp were very impressed with Brown’s ability to track the deep ball. He had the occasional concentration drop, an area of his game that still needs refining, but for the most part, he showed exactly what made the coaching staff rave about him as a prospect.

A player with Brown’s skillset will pair well with an elite seperator like Terry McLaurin, and allow Curtis Samuel to be used as a do-it-all weapon. With the trio of McLaurin, Samuel, and Brown expected to headline the recieving trio, and with Ryan Fitzpatrick expected to deliver the passes, the 2021 offense could be very exciting.

Dyami Brown should get a lot of snaps very early, and he could be expected to fill in as the outside Z reciever very early, if not Week 1. His deep ball tracking ability, combined with the little nuances to his game, projects him to be a dangerous deep threat very early in the NFL.

Both Dyami Brown and Benjamin St-Juste look to have pathways to early playing time in the NFL. And both look like they could add to the list of third-round finds for the Washington Football Team.
