Usually a running back on Cleveland means fantasy death. But the Browns have little in the passing game, which means it will be a running attack mostly, and that is attractive to fantasy owners, and Tate can catch the ball as well. But can he stay healthy??? James ---- Full time Ghostbuster!

Great upside, however, West is a phenomenal talent, my second-ranked rookie runner prior to the draft. Cleveland will run a ton, you are right on the money, and I think it all starts off great for Tate. Health is the question, and if he does stumble at all with the staying on the field part, West will carve out a role that won't be given back to Tate. The answer? Own both in any league you want to roll with Tate. Both are a nice RB2, in fact, a sneaky RB2. Owning just Tate has huge upside but just as huge a risk. Good topic, James! Once we things merge forum-wise, we will be having more great convos, James! I can't wait! I'll try to jump on more while we wait, though!

Without Gordon, it will be 8 men in the box stopping the run and a rookie QB that will be blitzed to death I think I will pass on the Brownie backs if I can, but I might grab West in my keeper league though. Tate just can't stay healthy James ---- Full time Ghostbuster!

What a shane Josh Gordon can't stay on the field.
