No. 6 — FS Tre Boston
The free safety position isn’t a major area of need for the Redskins, but depending on what they decide to do with Montae Nicholson, who has been decently productive, but has struggled with some off-the-field stuff in the past, it could become one of their biggest priorities. It wouldn’t come as a total shock to see Ron Rivera and the new coaching staff decide to start fresh at the position and look to sign a top-end safety.
Sticking with a trend that has been realized in Washington as of late, it makes a lot of sense to continue the string of Carolina Panthers that have flocked to the Redskins.
With 14 interceptions in his career, Boston would bring a great ball-hawking presence to the Redskins secondary, and his brief stint as a strong safety in Arizona with the Cardinals points to his ability to be a run-stopper as well — he has averaged 75 tackles per game over his last three seasons. Boston made just over $2.5 million in 2019, but he could stand to receive a solid payday once free agency rolls around if he were to sign in Washington.
