Just fyi, that article was about the 2015 season and the pressures include sacks they're not independent of sacks.

How do you propose the Redskins dramatically improve the pass rush ?

Interior pressure and more edge pressure. And having the lead.
The defense needs everything.
But one note from the article stuck out to me:

Its all important stopping the run, pressuring the QB and pass coverage and they are all correlated.
Pass coverage shouldn't be forgotten. Adding a solid CB/NB can really help this defense with or without pressure. AND this draft is filled with solid CBs.
There's tons of players I would target in this draft class at Edge rusher and CB.
