Redskins' Ryan Anderson: Headed to Washington

The Redskins selected Anderson in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft, 49th overall.

Analysis:

Anderson will play inside in Washington's 3-4, and he should push for a starting role right away after Su'a Cravens was moved to safety. If he can earn a three-down role, Anderson could make an IDP impact early on in his career. He wasn't a good athletic tester prior to the draft, but Anderson was a disruptive leading contributor on a dominant Alabama defense, posting nine sacks and 19 tackles for loss in 2016.
