Football Team | Dyami Brown headed to Washington
North Carolina WR Dyami Brown was selected by the Washington Football Team with the 82nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Footballguys View: Brown’s game is all about taking the top off the defense. His average depth of target in 2020 was over 18 yards! Brown does a good job of tracking passes and has ‘late hands’ so he doesn’t tip off that a pass is incoming. He’ll be a downfield target for Washington.
Dolphins | Miami adds Hunter Long
Boston College TE Hunter Long was selected by the Miami Dolphins with the 81st overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Footballguys View: Long is a solid pick by the Dolphins. He’s your classic ‘Y’ tight end who can thrive as a blocker and receiver. Long can be a security blanket for his quarterback, and he should quickly earn the trust of QB Tua Tagovailoa.
