Draft day is finally here and Washington has made their pick, Jamin Davis, LB, Kentucky. Washington had a big need going into this season for linebackers, and filled that with the fastest-rising defensive player in the draft. Micah Parsons and Zaven Collins were the first two LBs off the board which left Davis and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah. Washington went with Davis, and will look to plug him into a defense that saw massive improvement last year.
