Comment:
Fletcher has excellent experience, durability and toughness. He plays in regular and sub packages. He is competitive, active and hard-working. He handles all of the Bills' calls and adjustments within the box. He has good recognition skills and key-and-diagnose against the run and pass. He is an instinctive tackler who has sideline-to-sideline range. He can slide, stay square, avoid and play through trash in the box. He has a knack for timing up his blitzes and pressuring quarterbacks. He can open his hips and get good depth in underneath zones. He still has the speed to carry the vertical seam in cover 2. He has very good awareness and effectively communicates pattern recognition. He can match up with tight ends or backs over short areas in man-to-man. But Fletcher is undersized and lacks ideal power. He isn't a natural take-on player. He can get engulfed by bigger blockers and driven out of run lanes. He knows how to use his hands but lacks explosiveness in his stack-and-shed. He doesn't always protect his lower half when moving downhill.

This is the type of player that the Redskins need. A champion who does his job. They need a guy who tackles everything that moves. It is gravy that he knows the system as well as he does. And on the plays that he ties up a blocker or two, the Grim Reaper will deliver the kill shot.
As far as Marshall, I would like him to be the first OLB off the bench. Mongoose Washington is a no-brainer as long as the hip doesn't linger and with what they gave up for Rocky, he should be the most talented LB on the team.
