Browns WR Josh Gordon’s absence creates a potentially crippling void the Browns will have to fill by spreading the ball around to several players.

It leaves opposing defenses able to approach the Browns playing two-deep with corners keeping plays in front of them. In a time when the passing game has become dominant, the Browns will rely on passing efficiently, running the ball and playing defense.

Fantasy Impact: 

TE Jordan Cameron will feel the absence of Gordon as well, because no longer will teams have to double the outside. Cameron may get more targets, but he looks like he'll get a lot more attention from defenses, too. With a lot of questions at QB, the team may have to run more with Ben Tate and Terrance West, but eventually teams will stack the box unless they can somehow threaten defenses with the pass.

Browns RB Terrance West’s natural running ability jumps off the field.

His explosiveness and speed are exceptional. So, too, are his instincts.

Sometimes, though, the jumping part is too literal. As with many rookie running backs in the NFL, West will occasionally choose to jump rather than run through holes. And jumping rarely works for someone at his position unless he’s attempting a leap over the goal line.

Put it on the list of lessons that the Cleveland Browns’ third-round draft pick from Towson must learn to have long-term success in the NFL and to make an immediate contribution backing up veteran Ben Tate this season.

Fantasy Impact: 

West has an ADP of the 11th round and may not be a bad back to take at that point to add some depth to your team. Tate will likely get some carries but seems prone to injury so West could have lead back touches at some point sooner than later. The obvious issue with West is so far the Browns have struggled on offense and the QB situation has been a mess. Factor in the team could be without star WR Josh Gordon for at least part of the season and West looks more like a matchup play until we see how things play out.

Browns' RB1 job 'belongs to' Ben Tate

Halfback Ben Tate has emerged as the leader in more ways than one as the Browns look to establish the running game as a foundation for their offense.

The fourth-year veteran, who turned 26 on Thursday, has looked polished and decisive since the start of training camp. And while rookie Terrance West will get some carries, the starter's job belongs to Tate as the Browns prepare for their dress-rehearsal game against St. Louis at FirstEnergy Stadium on Saturday night.

Tate spent the last four seasons with the Houston Texans, which employed a similar wide-zone blocking scheme requiring backs to make one cut and turn upfield.

The question with Tate, who's averaged a career 4.7 yards per carry, is his durability. He played in just 40 of 64 regular-season games since the Texans drafted him in 2010.

Fantasy Impact: 

Tate wants to be a feature back and he'll have his chance in Cleveland. Tate has averaged 4.7 YPC in his career and has touched the ball at least 15 times in 13 career games, averaging 94.5 yards and 0.54 TD in the process. That equates to 12.7 fantasy points, which is about what Chris Johnson averaged as the #9 RB in 2013. Touchdowns are going to be tougher to come by in Cleveland than they were in Houston, and rookie Terrance West is in the mix. Keep in mind that in addition to missing the entire 2010 season due to a broken ankle, he has missed eight other games in his career. Durability is a big concern.

Browns Beat: Ben Tate 'seems to be the frontrunner' for the RB1 job

An update on the Browns' RB competition:

Ben Tate still seems to be the frontrunner for the top job, but Terrance West continues to get reps with the first team and is making his case as a legitimate threat to steal the starting job.

Tate showed more explosiveness than West and looked more comfortable running behind Kyle Shanahan's zone-blocking scheme. West showed some flashes and some raw power, but he had a fumble, which hurts. Tate wins Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact: 

As long as he's healthy, we're expecting Tate to hold off West due to his experience. But Tate has a long injury history, so don't be surprised if West gets at least a few starts this season.
