Reaction: Redskins select Samaje Perine
After what’s likely to be a highly rated first three rounds, the Redskins kicked off the third day of the draft by using the 114th on running back Samaje Perine from Oklahoma.
Perine holds both the career rushing record for the University of Oklahoma as well as the single game record for must rushing yards in an FBS game (427).
Here’s some reactions to the Redskins first selection of the day.
The #Redskins score big again in #NFLDraft with RB Samajie Perine from @OU_Football . Can be 1,000 yd rusher in right system

A #Redskins source told me pre-draft that Perine was the team's highest rated RB after Cook, Fournette and McCaffrey. They got their guy.

Samaje Perine to #Redskins immediately becomes one of the most fantasy-relevant selections of the draft. He's going to beast.

Pay no attention to the 40 time w/Perine. See 3C-20S. Defenders melt off Perine like butter hitting a hot cast iron frying pan.

Perine is gonna be a bruiser. Matt Jones' likely replacement. Him and Fat Rob will compete for the no. 1 spot.
