William

Green

If Suggs is able to play this weekend, we’re guessing the team will split carries between the two runners. Follow practice reports this week before making any lineup decisions.

“In retrospect, I wasn’t even truly aware that it had gotten that far out of hand in the second half,” Davis said. Green didn’t have a carry in the second half Sunday and only four for the game. Expect Lee Suggs to carry the ball at least twice as much as Green, although Green will still get work. Don’t drop him.

Green may start but we look for Lee Suggs to have the better game of the two. Green is still an option as a flex position candidate, though.

The Browns didn’t have much use for William Green or Lee Suggs on Sunday. It still looks like Lee Suggs will have far more value long-term.

“That clearly won’t happen until the first week of the season,” Davis said. Lee Suggs has pulled ahead, but it’s not over yet.

He fumbled for the second straight week and looks like he’s mailing it in to us. If Lee Suggs were to return, we’d guess Green would not touch the ball much.

They’ll probably release him if they can’t find a deal. Green is a longshot to be a fantasy factor anytime next season.

“I thought Lee Suggs and William Green ran as hard as I have seen them run,” said coach Butch Davis. Green started the game on the field for Cleveland, with Lee Suggs in the slot. He ripped off runs of 10 and 11 yards. Green still has an excellent chance to win the starting job, almost 50/50.

No indication yet who’s winning. William Green’s attitude and work ethic are reportedly much improved after his disasterous 2003 season.

He also added 22 yards receiving on a quiet night for the Browns offense. Still, Green may need to stand out more than this to pass Reuben Droughns.
