Position: Defensive Lineman
Projected Round – Top 25, first round
Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Possible
Why the Redskins need him
The Washington Redskins offense came to life during the second half of the season. Mostly thanks to the emergence of Kirk Cousins and the passing game. However, the Redskins defense remained a work in progress. Particularly against the run where they finished 26th in the league.
Part of the problem was the Redskins defensive line was inconsistent. Other than Chris Baker the rest of the defensive line’s play was up and down throughout the season.
