Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
With Jamal Lewis forced into retirement by a head injury, the Browns have been giving the majority of their carries to Jerome Harrison and Chris Jennings, who began the season on the practice squad. Mangini can see Cribbs becoming more than just an option in a gimmicky formation. “As a traditional running back, it wouldn’t be something I’d be opposed to,” Mangini said. ... At this point, Cribbs is clearly the Browns most dangerous weapon; putting the ball in his hands more makes sense.
