Same as Staubach did. But we are talking about a former pro bowler here, not a guy still wet behind the ears entering the league or a guy who did nothing while in the league. At worst, he would be Chad Hennings but I doubt it. I have seen him play live and he is a live wire on the field. Unfortunately for him he was the same off the field.
You are talking about young guys that were going to be in their prime, this guy missed his prime years. Its one thing to be a young "kid" and take time off and comeback than be a guy that missed significant time during his prime years. Age does a lot more to the body than the game does. Staubach played in a different era, a QB today could not take 3-4 years off and expect to be worth anything. Hennings had the benefit of being in a rotation for many years before he was the "starter"

Washington would play less snaps than Hennings did.

SLB plays about 15% of the snaps or he might be a situational pass rusher.

It would be a nice way to carry an extra pass rusher on game day because he would be counted as a LB.

Reasonable comp in terms of role.

They've used Wilber at DE and I'm confident Washington would be better than Wilber at either DE or LB.
