'Energy ball' Derrius Guice winning over fans and teammates (http://www.espn.com/blog/washington-redskins/post/_/id/36851/energy-ball-derrius-guice-winning-over-fans-and-teammates)
Prediction, he could be the next RGIII as far as hype and taking over the town if he plays well
I cant remember wanting and needing a draft pick to play well year 1...so much hinges on Guice. Love his attitude...need to see how he plays on the field.

I think at this point, as long as Guice isn't a total bust, he's gonna get some serious looks from the skins marketing department. He only needs 8-900 yards with 8-9 TD's and he'll be plastered on every lunch pail/coffee mug you see.
I say "only" as if that's not a lot, which it is. However I could see him being treated like Zeke is in Dallas even if he doesn't hit those great numbers.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Derrius Guice has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL.
RapSheet reports Guice will have an MRI to confirm the diagnosis. On one hand it's good news that it's nothing serious, but MCL sprains are typically multi-week injuries. We may not see Guice the rest of training camp and preseason, but he should be okay by the time Week 1 rolls around. It can't be good news for his early workload, but Guice could quickly re-lap his competition.
Damn...well I think this should end his preseason games...I really hope he can continue to light practice to prepare for the start of the season.
We'll see what the MRI shows of course but I'm not even worried. Shut him down until week 1.

I'm still holding my breath. We just haven't been able catch a break on the injury front for years.

Fully agree. We all know what we have with him, so do the coaches: a stud. Shut him down 'til week 1, and keep Thompson on ice too.
I'd rather let Kelley, Perine, Marshall and Bibbs get all the run from here on out so we can get a really, really good look to decide who makes it as the 3rd and possibly 4th. Let them be the ones to take the injuries - it's not like there's a huge difference between them all - style aside. Keep whichever ones come out of the preseason healthy and say bye to the rest.
