Breaking down the Redskins’ defensive line for the 2020 season

The last position breakdown was for the offensive line. No fun. This one is for the defensive line. Fun. Fun fun fun. It ought to be. In the past four years, the Washington Redskins have spent four first-round draft picks on defensive linemen. Of the thirteen players currently listed as either defensive ends or defensive tackles, five of them are former first-rounders. With that kind of investment, the Redskins’ defensive line had better not just be good. It needs to be dominant.

I really like the move to a 4-3 base alignment that Jack Del Rio will implement this season.
