Can the D improve under Haslett going forward by having better assistants around, better chemistry amongst the staff, and most of all by upgrading the talent? I think so.

Well, they've already got you buying it.
But don't forget that they weren't just bad on defense last year - they were historically, negative record-setting, horrible to watch bad.
OK, let's say they keep Haslett, which I believe they will. If we start out next season with the same kind of defensive ineptitude as we suffered through in 2013, I just hope that Dan Snyder will demand that Haslett be replaced by Game 5.
