Because it's the same as a wererat's attack liosting in the mm.

Move speed of 7 - they're faster than humans in the WFRP book.

I'd be tempted to give them a goblin-like free shift, only when they get hit rather than missed. 'Skaven Cowardice' or something.

And only infect skavenslaves (minions if ever I heard of 'em) with filth fever. Maybe.

Oh, and whilst I'm thinking about it - level 1? Skaven surely rate a 3 or something? They've got to be scarier than goblins...?

Here are the BASIC professions associated with SKAVEN from the books and how I'd rank them:
Skaven - No profession: Level 1 skirmisher
Apprentice Grey Seer Level 4 artillery
Black Skaven Level 3 skirmisher
Clanrat Level 2 skirmisher
Night Runner Level 2 skirmisher
Packmaster Level 4 leader
Plague Monk Level 3
Skirmisher Level 2 skirmisher

Does that sound about right? I'm forgetting all the types right now, so i just winged these. The advanced careers are in an earlier post.
