Redskins Youth Report (Post-NYG) | DC Pro Sports Report -- Sports news, stats and analysis from the capital of the free world

This is the new Redskins Youth Report. After about 7 years of doing it the same way, times have come to change it a bit. It will now be done in a tiered ranking by different levels. Remember, our rankings are based on performance and contributions to the Redskins. The Tiers will not be separated by rookies and 2nd year players.

Top Tier Rookies:
1. S Chris Horton: Horton is the top ranked Redskins rookie. As a seventh round draft pick, this likely would not have been predictable by any Redskins fan, analysts, or writer. Horton stays on the positive because he was one of the few that put in a rather impressive performance against the Giants. Horton is aggressive and very quick. He has improved his tackling and has a strong knack for being around the football. That’;s his charm as a newly position starter on this defense. That is precisely why S Reed Doughty won’t get his job back, Horton is just to, well, impactful (new word!) Horton finished with 8 tackles and 3 assists. A good, solid performance. (1)
