Summary

The Redskins made big strides last year defensively after a terrible season the previous year. Washington still didn't score much for fantasy teams, ranking 28th overall, but were 12th defensively. The strength of the defense was the secondary, which ranked 12th overall. They had just 13 interceptions, hurting their fantasy value. The pass rush is solid, though, having 40 sacks last year. Expect the interception totals to get better with guys like DeAngelo Hall and Cedric Griffin starting at cornerback. The rush defense isn't off the charts but decent with veteran linebacker London Fletcher making plays all over the field. The special teams play is just alright for the Redskins with Brandon Banks likely returning both punts and kicks. Banks has some good moves in space and a little big-play ability but isn't an elite option in the return game.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Redskins aren't a bad fantasy defense. The special teams aren't much of a factor, but they have good sack potential and should limit the yards with a decent amount of talent at linebacker and in the secondary. Consider them a platoon option, just outside the group of starting defenses/special teams.
