Week 2 brought Arian Foster and Calvin Johnson back to life, but that Stevan Ridley couldn’t get coach to play him. Way to go, fpaaweekly, you called those.
But Brandon did call the return of Jimmy Graham. Everyone wins a little bit.
And now we’re back with Week 3. Chris Adkins and our Co-Host, Brandon Lee, answered the HUGE question of the week. Justin Brant is recovering from a flag football injury, so he sat this one out. I think this is the adult version of “my dog ate my homework, but we’ll let it slide.

What are we going to do in the fantasy world with the Trent Richardson trade to Indianapolis and the addition of Willis McGahee to the Browns?
I just picked up McGahee. I’m not starting him, but I needed backups. Trent Richardson’s value just went way up. Indy wanted a big time runner, and that’s what they got. I am slightly downgrading Jordan Cameron and Josh Gordon. I think they will have some troubles with what’s his name? Oh, yeah, Hoyer… Seriously, on a side note, I would be extremely disappointed if I were a Browns fan (which yes, I know, disappointment is part of being a Browns fan). They gave up on the season after game 2. That is crazy. It’s even more crazy because, for once, their division sucks. Pittsburgh is a nightmare, Baltimore is rebuilding, and on Monday nigh Dalton couldn’t hit the side of a barn. With some game planning and their defense, they had a chance. Oh well, that’s really life. In fantasy, love your Richardson a little bit more, pick up McGahee for last year’s sake, and buy your Browns fan friend a drink. Make it stiff.
First off what does Cleveland know about Trent Richardson that the Colts and us fans don’t? If Trent Richardson plays, which is a big if, his time will be limited. Simply due to the fact that he doesn’t know the offense. It would not surprise me If the colts trot him out in goal line situations, all running backs know how to run inside the tackles at the goal line. All this being stated I believe that it would be prudent for Trent Richardson owners to temper their expectations for the next few weeks and possibly consider putting him on the bench this weekend.
