7 years agoWashington Redskins rookie running back Derrius Guice is expected to make a big impact in the backfield right away, and ESPN.com's John Keim thinks it'd be surprising if Guice didn't open the year as the starter over the likes of Rob Kelley and Samaje Perine. The Redskins specifically drafted Guice in the early second round to upgrade their early-down approach on the ground. Guice showed good hands when needed in college, but his weakness is in the passing game, and the 'Skins have Chris Thompson to mainly handle third-down duties. If Guice does indeed win the starting role early on, he should be a draft-day value as an RB3.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
