Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The news was first reported by Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. ... According to PFT's Mike Florio, it's unclear whether Haslett will use a 3-4 or a 4-3 defense in Washington. He once ran the 3-4 while serving as the Steelers' defensive coordinator. With the Saints and Rams (as well as the UFL's Florida Tuskers), Haslett used a base 4-3.
