Derrius Guice 2.0

Remember the excitement that we all felt when Derrius Guice was drafted by the Redskins with the 59th pick in the 2018 NFL draft?

It was like Christmas came twice. In 2017, Jonathan Allen — expected to be a top-10, or even top-5 pick — fell all the way to 17. A year later, Derrius Guice — considered to be perhaps the 2nd best running back in the draft behind Saquon Barkley — was still available after the Redskins had traded down in the second round, picking up an extra third round pick along the way.
