SUMMARY
Def / ST Rank: #17   
Overall: #247

The Redskins defense was fourth overall defensively, but didn't do much for fantasy teams. They had just one defensive/special teams touchdown, 24 sacks and 13 interceptions. Washington limited points and yards, but did little else. They are capable of improving on last season, though, with the Albert Haynesworth on board. Haynesworth is a dominant defensive player that makes everyone around him better. The Redskins could be very hard to run on this season. Their secondary is above average with DeAngelo Hall, Carlos Rogers and Fred Smoot as the top three corners. These guys are capable of shutting down an opposing passing game as long as the Redskins are getting some pressure on the quarterback. The Redskins special teams are about average. Rock Cartwright and Antwaan Randle El should the return duties and do a pretty good job.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The addition of Haynesworth makes the Redskins a good sleeper defense. They could really limit points and yards with this unit. And the sack potential goes up with Haynesworth drawing a lot of attention in the middle. Consider them a platoon option but could be an every-week starter before the end of the season.
