Fans are mixed on Washington's addition of Dominique Hampton in the fifth round.
The Washington Commanders are capping off a strong haul in the 2024 NFL Draft with a trio of selections on day three. The Commanders continued to invest in the future of their defense on Saturday by drafting Washington safety Dominique Hampton in the fifth round with the No. 161 overall pick.
Hampton is a hard-hitting safety who put together a productive career while playing with the Huskies. He's coming off a standout campaign in 2023 where he compiled 109 total tackles, seven pass deflections, and two interceptions as his squad made a run to the National Championship. Hampton has ideal size at 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, and is more than willing to lay the wood."Average game film has to be weighed against his traits and the potential of what he could do with pro coaching.
