Derrius Guice 2019 Outlook
It was last August when Guice's rookie season ended on only his sixth carry of the Redskins' pre-season opener. So, how's the running back's rehab from his torn ACL going? As NFL.com recently noted, Guice is running at full speed again. Last year's second-round pick underwent a string of additional operations to quell an infection -- concerning stuff, to be sure -- but Guice is viewed internally as Washington's bell cow. HC Jay Gruden believes the former LSU star will be ready for September and told ESPN's Matthew Berry, "He doesn't have to come off the field on third down," noting the team loved what Guice showed as a pass catcher before the injury. That is notable, with Chris Thompson heading into his contract campaign. Assuming he's healthy, Guice appears to be on tap to absorb the 270-plus touches Adrian Peterson saw last season. Peterson will return, however, and Thompson should be at full speed from day one this summer (the team also added Bryce Love, coming off an ACL he tore in February, in April's draft). So, Guice's path to a full workload isn't entirely clear. But if he returns to his pre-injury form, it's going to be very hard for the Redskins to keep him off the field.
Derrius Guice 2018 Outlook
Guice slid in the NFL Draft, but ended up landing in a nice spot for his future fantasy value. And to be fair, getting picked in the second round isn't a huge fall. But the fact that Guice, who may have been punished for complaining about questions asked during the pre-draft process, was widely viewed as a top-20 pick prior to the draft made his slide seem more precipitous. Rookie Scouting Portfolio author Matt Waldman's assessment seems dead on here: "If Guice's maturity is a real problem, it will make sense to hold tight on Samaje Perine and Chris Thompson. If it's NFL engaging in petty behavior, Guice can start and thrive immediately in Washington." Whatever the case, it's hard to imagine Guice won't play immediately given his talent, but his hard running style probably lends itself to fewer snaps. The Redskins want to limit Chris Thompson's snaps coming off a broken leg in an effort to keep him fresh as their elite third-down back. Beyond that, the Redskins clearly weren't sold on Samaje Perine or Rob Kelley, so expecting Guice to quickly earn a prominent early-down role is reasonable. Indeed, even if Thompson's presence somewhat limits the newcomer's appeal in PPR formats, NFL.com expects the LSU product to lead the Redskins in carries as a rookie. We do, too.
