The Rogue Rebalancing mod moves rogues closer to the PnP versions and allows you to put 3* in dual-wielding I believe (and just dual wielding)...so together with that and maybe 1* in short swords you're well on your way. Then I would go for one star in dagger and then one in short bow as you level up.
