Bynum is rated a three-star recruit by Scout.
The Huskies have reeled in another one of the top recruits from the state of Oregon.
Draco Bynum, a three-star defensive end from Wilsonville, Ore., announced his commitment to Washington on Saturday, choosing the Huskies over offers from Oregon, UCLA, USC and others.
Bynum, listed at 6-feet-5, 250 pounds, won the Big Man Challenge during a Las Vegas regional camp in February.
He is the eighth known commitment for UW in the 2018 class and the second from Oregon. Four-star wide receiver Trey Lowe, out of Portland’s Jesuit High, committed to the Huskies in March.
