It's one thing to pay for the performance you need, which is what they've done. Whether they're going to get it is a different question. At 6-8 sacks, plus the disruption you would expect from a guy getting to the QB that often, that's the kind of impact you're looking for with this contract.

If the plan works, the interior pass rush should improve, and everyone will benefit.

Ah yes, the eternal conundrum of NFL Free Agent signings!

You're right. This is not a unique problem that the Redskins face. They just have a bad history with it.
