Notes
Cleveland Browns WR Joshua Cribbs, who is close friends with Detroit Lions RB Jerome Harrison (brain), said Harrison's recovery from a brain tumor is not going so well. 'I still go over to his house every now and then and talk to him. He's doing pretty bad. He's in and out of the hospital with seizures. They just don't want the same thing to happen to me,' Cribbs said.

The Detroit Lions need to address their running back position during the NFL Draft or free-agent market. While RBs Jahvid Best (concussion) and Mikel Leshoure (Achilles') are under contract, the team enters the offseason without a clear No. 1 running back. If Best and Leshoure return at 100 percent, the Lions will be in good shape -- however, that is tough to bank on at this point in time. RBs Joique Bell, Jerome Harrison and Keiland Williams are also under contract.

Detroit Lions backup RB Jerome Harrison has impressed head coach Jim Schwartz with his play during the preseason. 'Every time he goes in, he gains yards. He is a very, very productive runner,' Schwartz said. Schwartz added that Harrison doesn't get thrown for too many losses and has done a good job of breaking a lot of long runs.
Fantasy Impact: Harrison is worth a late-round flier come draft day. He has some upside, especially if you consider Jahvid Best is the only back ahead of him on the depth chart.
