2. CB Kendall Fuller

I still think that Kendall Fuller should have won the slot role for the Redskins defense, but Joe Barry decided to go with Dashaun Phillips. As a result, Fuller has been inactive for the first two games of the season. I cannot imagine him being activated for this game given the needs that the team has at other positions.

Fuller looked like he had the potential to be an elite corner in the offseason but he has not gotten a chance to prove himself yet. Down the road, he will likely be activated but for now, the team does not have a need for six cornerbacks. Perhaps if the team decides not to dress five safeties, Fuller will have a chance to play.

It is only a matter of time before Fuller plays. It just will not be against the Giants this week.
