ANALYSIS
Compton last suited up with the Raiders in 2021 and spent the second half of the 2022 campaign on the Falcons' practice squad.

He totaled 358 tackles (210 solo), including a sack, three interceptions, four fumble recoveries, two forced fumbles and 12 pass defenses.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2017
2016
2015
Compton had a career season in 2016, recording 106 tackles, five pass defensed, one forced fumble and an interception in 15 games as a starter. The undrafted 27-year-old signed a restricted free-agent tender to remain in Washington for at least one more season, but it may prove to be his most challenging yet. Washington signed former Bills linebacker Zach Brown during the offseason, leaving two inside linebacker spots for three potential starters. The battle appears likely to come down to Compton and Mason Foster, who led the team in tackles last season. Compton, who was elected captain at the beginning of last season, is a clear leader for Washington's defense, but he'll have to back it up with his play if he wants to maintain his role in 2017.
