Ranking the Washington Redskins position groups from best to worst

Aside from a few rookies, the Redskins roster is set for the most part — so which position group is the strongest, and which is the weakest?

No. 2 — Running Backs

This ranking is done more based on potential than production, but I feel very strongly that the Redskins will see some great improvement from their running back group this season. Adrian Peterson, always the steady veteran, will lead the way, and Derrius Guice has shown that he can be a truly dynamic asset if he’s able to stay healthy. The Redskins also have Bryce Love set to return after missing his rookie season, and his performance in college has me incredibly excited for what he can do in the NFL. On top of all that, the Redskins added both J.D. McKissic and Peyton Barber to the roster in free agency — two players who have shown solid production in short spurts, but they’ve struggled to find the right fit in the league. If they can find a home in Washington, the stable of running backs for the Redskins could be one of the best in the NFL.
