Draft Profile: Bio
A'Mauri Washington came to Eugene as a consensus four-star recruit, rated the top defensive lineman in his home state by every major service and ranked 172nd nationally by ESPN in the 2023 class. Limited freshman action produced two tackles in eight games behind Derrick Harmon and Jamaree Caldwell.Washington grew into a rotational piece on Oregon's 2024 Big Ten championship defense, playing in all 14 games and recording 10 tackles while logging snaps against Ohio State and Penn State during the title run.
Promoted to the starting lineup in 2025, Washington played all 15 games and totaled 33 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, and eight batted passes, earning third-team All-Big Ten honors. Among his best outings was the October home loss to Indiana, when he recorded a sack and three solo tackles, and he added three quarterback pressures against USC. Oregon reached the College Football Playoff semifinals before falling to eventual national champion Indiana, and Washington announced in December that he would return to the Ducks for 2026.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Carries 330 pounds with rare burst, beating blockers off the snap inside
- Anchors the front against the run, holding the point versus USC and Washington
- Gets his hands up well, knocking down eight throws at the line
- Plays heavy hands and resets the line of scrimmage against single blocks
- Splits double teams with leverage and keeps his gap on early downs
- Brought down the quarterback against both Indiana and Washington off interior rushes
- Third-team all-conference as a first-year starter on a Playoff defensive front
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Pass-rush counting numbers stay modest at two sacks for the season
- Missed eight tackles, a finish issue at his size and role
- Pure rush plan still leans on power without a developed counter
Scouting Report: Summary
Washington is a 330-pound interior anchor who moves better than the listed weight suggests, resetting the line against single blocks, splitting doubles with leverage and holding the point in the meetings with USC and Washington, and he gets his hands up to bat down passes. However, the pass rush is more potential than production, two sacks is a modest total for the burst, the plan leans on power without a counter, and he missed eight tackles with range that thins to the perimeter.Overall, Washington is a scheme-versatile, two-gap nose who wins the early-down battle, with a burst-and-anchor trait set at this weight that reads first-round even before the rush fills in. He projects as a starting nose or heavy three-technique, with the ceiling climbing on rush development and the floor of a trusted run-down cornerstone.
