I'm not about to give away my research just because but I'm willing to bet Malik will have a better rookie season than Keon.
Any takers?

First off, he's miscast in Buffalo. Curtis Samuel and Shakir are almost slot exclusive, thus Keon is almost a lock to play outside and I don't think he can consistently win there.I wouldnt take that bet
But talk to us about what you’re thinking ?
This.I believe Washington has an opportunity to be an excellent WR for the Dolphins but as long as Hill and Waddle remain healthy, he isn’t going to get nearly the opportunities in the passing game as Coleman will in Buffalo.
Coleman is already listed as a starting WR on Buffalo’s pre season depth chart while Malik is listed behind Berrios
on the Dolphins depth chart.
While obviously Malik could move ahead of Berrios as the season progresses. Coleman will likely be no worst than the 2nd WR for the Bills and because of this Allen will likely be looking to throw to him more than Tua will be looking to throw to Washington.
This doesn’t mean I don’t think Washington can be every bit as good as Coleman. Allen just doesn’t have a Hill or Waddle to throw the ball to while Tua does.

Yeah, he's tall but I don't see as much materialized contested catch ability as some hope he'll display in the NFL.
His deep speed is poor, his route running is meh, his ball tracking is also not great.
He is great getting off the LOS and his body control and fluidity allow him to get open quick but he'll seriously struggle getting open past 10 yards.
His best asset currently is his play with the ball on his hands but that's also Samuel's and Shakir's meal ticket.
He's best suited as a big slot/H-Back type and he won't get a chance to play that role when they desperately need him on the outside.
There are many more reasons but that's my #1. He's not who everone hopes he is.
Not to discredit his strengths or accomplishments. I would have like him here playing the slot but I don't think he can win outside against NFL corners.

Depends on how smart he is.What about Kincaid, their running game and Josh keeping it?
Do you think Berrios or anyone else will beat Malik?
Based on McD's call I think Malik will have every chance to displace Berrios, Cracraft et al.
Depends on how smart he is.
Many WRs struggle to learn our playbook. He will get some snaps, but I dont think he will have much production this year.
I do think Keon has a lot of potential if he learns to track the ball better, time his jump, be more physical at the top of routes and with the ball in the air.I would change the title to career and not rookie season fwiw, that’s more impactful anyways
I think this says a lot of what Joe Brady, Beane and McDermott think of Josh's ability to find burners deep.I like this kind of party :)
**** the bills :)
I too thought it was a bizarre scenario and player they dictated by trading down and selected the player
$10 donation? I'm a broke mexican in Mexico and I'll make that bet.Get real. Keon Coleman is Stephon Diggs' replacement and will probably get 3X the number of targets that Malik Washington will get. I hope that Malik is a glorious success but we also have Tyreek, Waddle and a good running game.
