So maybe for some reason last week didn't work out for you and you didn't win the million dollars. And maybe it REALLY didn't work out for you and you didn't win anything.  No problem!  You've got another chance to make up for it this Sunday.  And if you've waited to fill your defensive spot with your last pick, you've still got some options under $3000.

Washington Redskins  $2500

This pick will depend on who starts at quarterback for the Cardinals.  Washington is the worst team in the league against opposing quarterbacks so I would only feel comfortable starting them if Logan Thomas were starting under center for Arizona.  On the year the Redskins have 14 sacks and two interceptions to go along with three forced fumbles.  If the rookie is forced to start the Redskins have the possibility to do some damage on the defensive front.  

Jacksonville Jaguars  $2600

This is likely the only week you might even consider starting the Jaguars defense, but if you do and they do well you can feel pretty good about being one of the few who starts them.  On the year the Jags have sacked opposing quarterbacks 16 times.  They only have one interception, but have forced four fumbles.  To Jacksonvilles advantage, the Titans are likely going to start backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst.  Make no mistake, these are two bad football teams and someone is going to score some points somehow.  Maybe the Jags defense can put some points on the board.

If you are in this spot and you have to pick a cheap defense you should definitely have a stacked lineup with multiple stud players at your skill positions.  Neither of these choices are ideal, but if I had to choose one I would probably go with the Redskins IF Logan Thomas is starting for the Cardinals.  The Redskins have shown that they can compete where the Jaguars, outside of last week, have not.
