Who has Washington's best  and worst  contract?
One of the most valuable assets in the NFL is the rookie contract. Thats especially true if you have a franchise quarterback who you are paying elite money. However, we know the value of rookie contracts, so Pro Football Focus recently took a look at some of the best  and worst  veteran contracts for each NFL team. Obviously, for Washington, wide receiver Terry McLaurin has the most valuable contract, but he is still on his rookie contract and is ineligible for this list. To no ones surprise, PFF lists Landon Collins as having Washingtons most onerous contract. Entering his third season with the WFT, Collins missed almost half of last season after an Achilles injury in Week 7. Collins, who signed a then-record six-year, $84 million contract for a safety with Washington in 2019, is at the crossroads on his WFT career. His salary makes it almost impossible for the Football Team to cut him now, but that changes in 2022. It doesnt help that the man who replaced Collins, Kam Curl, had a terrific season in 2020 as a rookie seventh-round pick. Here is PFFs take:  Collins enormous extension signed in 2019 didnt have a high probability of aging well in Washington, as his 78.4 coverage grade from 2017-18 ranked 35th among all safeties with at least 100 coverage snaps over the span. Hes a solid box defender who isnt a liability in coverage by any means, but thats not the type of safety you pay top-of-market money to. The best Washington contract belongs to cornerback Kendall Fuller. Originally a third-round pick of Washington in 2016, Fuller became one of the leagues top slot corners in 2017 before being traded in the Alex Smith deal in 2018. Washington liked Fuller so much; it re-signed him last offseason to a four-year, $40 million deal that feels like a bargain for one of the leagues most versatile defensive backs. Fuller was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs as a part of the package that brought Alex Smith to Washington, but the Football Team was wise to bring Fuller right back into the fold following his 2019 season. He is a man of many hats, and his versatility is a big component of his value. After starting his NFL career playing primarily in the slot, Kansas City started to experiment with him outside a bit and even had him log 100 playoff snaps in 2019 at free safety. Upon returning to Washington, hes assumed a role as an outside corner and performed admirably in his first season in a full-time capacity. Fullers 72.9 grade at wide corner ranked 25th among all cornerbacks with at least 100 snaps on the outside. His 0.8 yards per coverage snap allowed ranked 12th, and his 7.1% interception rate per attempt into his coverage tied for fifth. Fuller is a special player. He can play outside, the slot, or free safety for the Football Team. And, he is good everywhere he lines up. If rookie Benjamin St-Juste is the real deal in 2021, it would allow the WFT to move Fuller back inside with St-Juste and William Jackson on the outside. That would make a terrific Washington defense even better. Washington locked up Fuller last offseason in one of the smarter long-term deals of the offseason.
