Young shows prowess as route-runner

Redskins FB Darrel Young displayed great route-running on a stop-and-go route that beat LB Keenan Robinson. After the stop, Young had to furiously speed up to catch the off-target Colt McCoy pass. The fullback tried to make a one-handed catch as he crossed the goal-line, but couldn't hold on to the rain-covered football. (Washington Post)
Fantasy Impact:
While Young holds no fantasy value in any leagues, he is certainly one of the best fullbacks in the NFL. He's one of the best lead-blockers and his route-running is comparable to some of the league's best receiving tight ends. He'll stay in your league's free agent pool, but he would be a highly valued asset for any real football team.
