7 years agoWashington Redskins running back Rob Kelley, commonly known as Fat Rob, has slimmed down in the offseason and is playing lighter and faster at 221 pounds. He played in just seven games last year and struggled when on the field with 62 carries for 194 yards and three touchdowns. He took the lion's share of the first-team repetitions on Thursday, but he has Samaje Perine, Chris Thompson, Byron Marshall and rookie Derrius Guice also fighting for playing time. Kelley has worked on his pass catching and on special teams in order to increase his value to the team. The Redskins have an open mind in training camp and the preseason, so Kelley could carve out a decent role. However, Guice has the most upside of this group and Thompson is pretty much locked into a third-down role. That probably won't leave too much else for Kelley in the way of fantasy production.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
