Roy Helu still struggling in pass protection

According to Redskins beat writer John Keim, rookie RB Roy Helu is "still not adept at picking up blitzes."  It's just another reason why RB Tim Hightower is locked-in as Washington's feature back.  We still like Helu's long-term potential, but he has some work to do before he's ready to take on a sizeable role.  Look for him to mix in for 6-8 touches per game early this season.
