With the first of their fourth round picks(#114), the Washington Redskins have added Samaje Perine, RB, Oklahoma to the family. The 5’10 5/8”, 233 lb RB will immediately compete for playing time in the Redskins backfield. Robert Kelley enters the offseason as the projected starter, and there are rumors that Matt Jones is on the trade block after being benched for the second half of the season due to fumbling issues. Chris Thompson and Mack Brown are also on the roster.
