#3 – Ryan Kerrigan, LB – Washington Redskins

Versatile, durable and productive. This nine-year outside linebacker/defensive end has averaged just over 10.5 sacks per season without missing any games.

His abilities go beyond the quarterback takedowns. He continuously harasses passers with nagging pressure as well.

Only $13.95 million and $11.75 million dollar cap charges for the next two seasons.

That’s a bargain, but will the Washington Redskins let Kerrigan leave the building? Never hurts to ask.

2018 stats: 16 games/16 starts; 41 tackles, 13.0 sacks, 1 pass defended, 3 forced fumbles

Fair compensation: 3rd-4th round pick
