The Facts:
With newcomer Donte' Stallworth likely to become the Browns' No. 2 wideout behind Braylon Edwards, Jurevicius will fill the No. 3 role. The team would still explore ways to use return ace Joshua Cribbs on offense.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It should be noted the Browns rarely used the third receiver last season as TE Kellen Winslow led the team with 82 catches in 2007. Edwards caught 80 and Jurevicius 50. Tim Carter, unreliable when he did play, lined up as the third receiver occasionally and caught eight passes. Instead of using Carter, Anderson completed 30 passes to Jamal Lewis, 24 to Jason Wright and 13 to Lawrence Vickers out of the backfield. Tight end Steve Heiden caught 12 passes. Jurevicius seems likely to do better than Carter, however. He might be especially effective as a red-zone threat.
