SI.com's NFL personnel expert Michael Lombardi evaluates the Redskins' units.

QB C+
Despite change around him, Campbell continues to progress.

RB B
Portis is still a strong No. 1; Ladell Betts, a competent backup.

WR C
A rookie—Devin Thomas or Malcom Kelly—must produce.

TE B+
Cooley's an effective pass catcher, Fred Davis is the blocker.

OL C
Lack of depth means injuries could hurt this aging unit.

DL B-
Taylor really boosts the rush, but Griffin in the middle is the key.

LB B
Solid and smart all around, starting with 10th-year vet Fletcher.

DB C+
Rogers's play at corner will make or break the secondary.

ST C
Serviceable kicking; return units could be more consistent.
