I read this:

(KFFL) Steve Doerschuk, of the Canton Repository, reports Cleveland Browns general manager Phil Savage said Browns RB William Green will remain the team's primary backup at running back heading into minicamp. "I think William is the incumbent as the second-string tailback," Savage said on a WTAM-AM draft show. "Someone's going to have to beat him out. The drafting of RB Jerome Harrison probably doesn't effect William Green as much as it would Lee Suggs or Jason Wright. Suggs, Wright and Harrison are slated to be third-down backs." Head Coach Romeo Crennel seems intent on keeping RB Reuben Droughns fresher in 2006. Droughns carried a franchise-record 309 times in 2005.

I don't get Green ahead of Suggs. I know Suggs is like tissue paper, but when he plays, he puts up good numbers. Has Cleveland just lost patience with him?

Isn't Willie Green due to get beat up by his wife again soon?

green accepted his job on special teams last year, and not only did he not whine about it, he did a good job. think this won over some people on the coaching staff.

suggs had a chance to start, and instead sat about 6 weeks because of his pinky. i doubt he will be on the team at the start of the season, imo.

I said it in another thread and I'll say it again: I'd love for the Colts to pick up Suggs cheaply.

If he could actually stay healthy for a whole season (big if), Addai and Rhodes might have a real battle for playing time on their hands.
