Redskins Bold Predictions Nos. 11-15

11.  Trent Williams will continue to prove that he is still one of the best left tackles in the league and will play in all sixteen games.

12.  Daron Payne will have a monstrous season in 2018 and produce four sacks, eight tackles for loss, two fumble recoveries, three forced fumbles, and nine pass deflections, including one that he bats down and takes into the end zone for a defensive score. He will be rewarded with a Pro Bowl berth and second team All-Pro selection.  He narrowly misses winning Defensive Rookie of the Year.

13.  Matt Ioannidis will continue his impressive climb to elite defender and come away with three sacks, 45 tackles, two fumble recoveries, and three tackles behind the line of scrimmage.

14.  Jonathan Allen will recover from a shortened rookie season to produce four sacks, a fumble recovery for a touchdown, two forced fumbles and 50 tackles overall.

15.  Rookie Tim Settle becomes a mainstay in the defensive line rotation and shines with 25 tackles, three forced fumbles, and two sacks, one of which ends up being a safety.
