2018 Redskins Season Preview & NFL Futures Lines
Looking for 2018 Washington Redskins predictions? We’ve got your back. Everyone is looking up at the Eagles in the NFC West but I see the Redskins as the least threatening. I am not sure why they saw a switch at quarterback as their ticket to better success and if so why not go young. They have already had some bad luck in terms of injuries in the preseason which is not helping their outlook.

2018 Washington Redskins Predictions: Roster Changes
The Redskins finally parted ways with Kirk Cousins, bringing in Alex Smith as his replacement. Smith has a nice winning percentage over his career but is hardly the kind of guy you want when you are looking up hill at the rest of the division.

Derrius Guice was supposed to be the solution at running back but he is now out for the season. In comes Adrian Peterson. Though I am not sure what he really has left.
Top pick Da’Ron Payne, out of Alabama is supposed to be a difference maker in the middle of the defensive line. If so it will free up a linebacking corp that is actually pretty good.
Paul Richardson never got a chance to put up big numbers in Seattle but he might be the top option on this offense and a breakout is in the offing.
When you make a change at quarterback it makes all of your other acquisitions pale in impact so how well Smith does will make this season a success or failure.
I admire that the Redskins were willing to go in a different direction but I am doubtful that it will be enough.
2018 Washington Redskins Predictions: Offense
The plans was supposed be to use a new backfield to advance in the division, losing a rookie can’t be a season crushed but now they are going to have to find a running game by committee.
Alex Smith never makes a lot of mistakes and I don’t expect that to change. However, you would like to think that he might be willing to open things up more if he has to.

When it comes to athletic ability it is tough to top the combo of Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis at tight end. Smith has always looked that way and I expect them to put up good numbers..
Washington has a numbers of guys who are going to carry the ball and if they can find a hot hand it just might work. The offensive line could be a strength. At the very least they have continuity on their side.
2018 Washington Redskins Predictions: Defense
The Redskins have one of the best linebacker groups in the league even if many don’t recognize them as such. Ryan Kerrigan always gets credit for having a high motor but that kind of makes you think he is just a ball of energy, he is so much more.
They need their young line to start busting some heads, if, or when they do this group could be something.
Josh Norman is getting paid like a top corner but has yet to play like one. Someone in the secondary has to be a playmaker.
2018 Washington Redskins Handicapping: (Strengths/Weaknesses)
I am worried about this offense. Featuring the tight ends is okay but it brings the defense closer to the line of scrimmage which is going to make it even harder to run.
Also we have seen the script of someone thinking Peterson can still play and it it not a good show. This group is going to be mediocre at best.

The defense is not going to be good enough to help out an offense that will have to be super precise. I know Smith doesn’t make mistakes but he is going to feel more pressure in this market and is not surrounded by as much as in the past.
2018 Washington Redskins Prediction (Final Record): 5-11
I know we are supposed to be optimistic at this time of the year but I am definitely not feeling it for the Redskins this season.
The schedule is tough this season as they take on the NFC South, against which I don’t see them taking a game. They are the worst team in the division too which doesn’t leave many spots for victories.
