He was drafted out of HS in the same draft as Maxwell.
Scouts were impressed with his cannon arm, and the Nats were trying to convert him to a pitcher after a failed attempt in the outfield.

Some reports on him at draft time:

Alan Matthews (BA): I like Delaughter on the mound, personally. His best tool is his arm strength and if shows an ability to control his fastball, which touches the mid-90s, and better control a breaking ball, he could be drafted anywhere from the second to fifth round.

On Scout.com, they rated Delaughter, “best untapped talent” and “best outfield arm” in September 2006.

Is he still in the Nats organization?
