Why the Redskins need him
The Washington Redskins defense has been in transition it seems for the last six seasons. In 2015 they went from a read and react 3-4 defense under Jim Haslett to an attacking style front under new defensive coordinator Joe Barry.
However, not much has changed in terms of defensive ranking, in fact things have gotten worse. So the Redskins need to add more talent at as many positions as possible.
