The Dolphins selected Washington with pick No. 184
The Miami Dolphins' 2024 draft class was headlined by big names like Chop Robinson and Patrick Paul and potential gems like Mohamed Kamara and Jaylen Wright , but the Dolphins' first of two sixth-round draft choices might be getting recognition before too long.
Wide receiver Malik Washington was the 184th pick in the NFL draft -- and a player that head coach Mike McDaniel had coveted throughout the process. Washington has potential to be a yards-after-catch receiving threat worthy of earning snaps in Miami's talented wide receiver room of Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Odell Beckham Jr.
Washington was candid about looking forward to using his first season as a pro to learn from his new wide receiver colleagues. "Just be a sponge, I got three guys ahead of me ... they know they are doing, they've done it before and they've had a lot of success at doing it," Washington said. "Being a sponge, taking in all of the information I can and trying to take it into my game as well.
"I think when you get to this level, everybody is fast, everybody can move and stuff like that. It will take who can be the best pro, who can learn the information as quickly as possible and utilize it on the field. I think that will be to my advantage -- I'll try my best to do that ... I think the biggest two things I'd have to do is be consistent and stack days, stack meetings, stack practices ... So just every single day, give it everything I've got.
