The Redskins placed the first-round tender on quarterback Jason Campbell, according to a league source.
Washington would have seven days to match or get back the other team's first-round pick.
The first-round tender for a player that has played five seasons like Campbell is $2.621 million, but his tag is for more than $3.1 million because it is 110 percent of a player's 2009 base salary.
