The purchase of Browns has a price for fantasy owners

There was a moment in the past when the Madman had a pretty good car. A lot of legroom. Elegant, royal appeal. Heated seats Work.

It was really nice. Not quite as good as it seemed. One of the heated seats did not heat up. It was a bear to do in sharp turns, and he did not do well the daily commute that was necessary to make, it was necessary to make trips back and forth in the city.

Of course, it was good, but not without its warts. Not unlike the fantastic prospects of Cleveland Browns players.

They represent a new brilliant tower. But before we head to the fantastic car show with our new fantasized composition, heavy with Browns, slow down a bit and realize that there may still be some slowdowns in the future.

There is a long-standing idea that four quarter-over-quarter film games are needed for coordinators to identify certain trends for which to plan. At this point, they can spot holes in the game of a QB or preferences that the defenses can then remove.

This does not mean that Browns rookie Baker Mayfield, who has just played his second game and his first start, will fall off a production cliff when that happens, it just means waiting for a few casual breakdowns along the way. .

Do not drop Philip Rivers or Matthew Stafford to seize Mayfield, or consider making him the only QB on your list. You are going to want to choose the right places to play it, and this week against the Ravens is not one of them.

Yet, Mayfield is not the only Brown on the lot of fantastic cars this week. Carlos Hyde continues to produce stable figures and should, for the moment, keep a place in your starting lineup. But keep an eye on the rear-view mirror as Nick Chubb gets closer.

At the beginning of the week, Chubb was not even on the road yet. Then, in just two races, he hit the nitro and is on Hyde's bumper. Chubb broke two long touchdowns (63 and 41) and totaled 105 yards in three races. Such numbers will turn in the meeting room of the darkest coach.

Three races are only three races. Hyde had 22 attempts with 82 yards and a score. He does the work and that's about it. He will not be able to keep the job all season, so grab Chubb now if you have room to hide for a few weeks.

We are also encouraged by the goals for some reception options. Jarvis Landry scored a goal, but he got 10 targets. Many fancy owners sweat David Njoku but remain patient. He had seven looks.

The guy to get is Antonio Callaway. He has great potential and has been targeted nine times Sunday and 10 times the previous week.

So go ahead, jump in your new fantastic ride. It may not be as beautiful as it is, but it will take you where you are going.

Hit the gas

Marcus Mariota QB, Titans
He was mean, then he was hurt, then he played badly when he was injured. Then he looked great Sunday. Sure again as a starter or QB platoon.

Tarik Cohen RB, bear
Our favorite example of a 2017 flash in the pan might not be anymore. Got more passes than Jordan Howard this week, which was his third straight win with an average of 2.5 yards or less per run.

Keke Coutee WR, Texans
A team record of 15 targets in his first game. And with Deshaun Watson starting to produce like last year's fantastic meteor, catch that rookie if you can.

Cameron Brate TE, the buccaneers
With Jameis Winston back at QB, expect to see Brate more often in the end zone, especially with his compatriot TE O.J. Howard should miss a few more weeks.

Pump the brakes

Andy Dalton QB, Bengals
His on-again / off-again season is expected to continue this week with a game against a strong Dolphins defense. Do not drop it, however, or catch it and keep it for a week if you can. The next three games will be against the Steelers, Chiefs and Buccaneers.

Nyheim Hines RB, Colts
The game of Indy Ground is abominable. The bulk of Hines production is generated in the passing game. You have two TDs this week, but do not expect constant use near the goal line.

Kenyan Drake RB, Dolphins
Backfield was essentially a split with Frank Gore the first three weeks. On Sunday, Gore had 11 carries to the three Drakes. Not the direction we had anticipated.

Tyler Kroft TE, Bengals
If you're looking to replace injured Tyler Eifert, look elsewhere. Not enough volume here. Try Vance McDonald, Benjamin Watson or Charles Clay instead.
