The team has brought in tight ends Je'Ron Hamm, Chase Dixon and Devin Mahina this offseason to serve as competition. Of the group, Mahina is the most intriguing.
As Kevin Kennedy of SB Nation detailed, the 6'6" and 251-pound Mahina has both the size and athleticism to be a dual threat at tight end.
Mahina shows promise in the NFL as a tight end that has the ability both to block and catch the ball.
He has the size that would benefit him in the NFL and blocks well with his hands. Although he doesn't cause much separation in his routes he does have a tendency to make defenders miss, or run them over, after catching the ball. With a bit of experience he could fit into a system that would require him to earn his keep as a blocker or pass catcher.
He's not by any means a perfect prospect—he was undrafted after all. But with Paulsen pulling in over $2 million of Washington's cap space, according to Spotrac.com, Mahina is a good alternative to fill the No. 3 tight end spot.
