#browns Trent Richardson getting some work w/ ones in team drills too. Looks like he'll play v eagles

imo It might not be the best time to start Greg Little.

If your sayin sit Trent, would you also suggest starting Brandon Jackson? I would think someone has to be worthy of a starthttp://sports.yahoo.com/news/browns-rb-richardson-back-practice-152925198--nfl.html?utm_term=NFL+NEWS&utm_content=NFL+NEWS&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=YAHOOAlthough Richardson was not on the practice field for weeks, Browns general manager Tom Heckert said the 22-year-old did not have any setbacks and said the team is not concerned about him being out of shape. Heckert said the Browns would be smart about Richardson's playing time and not overload him in Week 1.

I would avoid all Browns in week 1.

Not sure why you feel that follows logically.Everything I've heard for weeks now suggests they plan to have Trent ready to go, and that he should start...but that likewise, they'll be careful to limit his touches week one. I'm imagining Trent and Jackson will both see about half the available work, which I don't expect to be all that much anyway since the Eagles will probably blow their doors off.

 
ETA: all of which means, IMO, wait and see on Trent for week one, but assuming all goes well be ready to suit him up week 2 and beyond.

 
Isn't this about Weeden?

I would think the Eagles DST has a fair shot at being highest scoring defense given what we saw in the preseason.

 
Any optimism for Greg Little this season?
I'm cautiously optimistic. Love his size and his athleticism. Love, love, LOVE his situation and the opportunities it presents. Obviously, Weeden's preferences are still TBD. But somebody's got to be his security blanket, his go-to guy, his preferred red zone threat, and all that. And I don't think whoever that guy turns out to be will be totally worthless, since with the TRich addition, this team ought to move the ball a little bit for a change. Little has a chance to win some or all of those titles...indeed, I imagine he's the favorite to win them all.I'd still be happier with him if I thought for sure he could catch. But I'm willing to chalk most of his dropsies last year up to rust from having missed the previous season. He hit the ground running in every other important way. I could see him building on that.
 
Browns will get massacred. Namdi on Little. DRC on Gordon. Kendrick's and the d-line vs Weeden who sucks under pressure. It's going to get ugly.

Richerson for a 2nd rd pick has a brutal schedule to start PHI-CIN-BUF-BAL-NYG-CIN. He's still a rookie and missed a ton of reps this preseason. Even if he plays my expectations would be low but I doubt you have a better option if you have him on you roster.

 
If Richardson has any modicum of early success in the game you can bet he will get at least 20 touches in the game. Against that sieve of a defensive line, I will be starting Richardson with confidence, as long as he is green lighted to play.

 
Definitely sit him the first week.
