Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the RB position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Was last season the beginning of the end? or the result of a dysfunctional offense and a foolish move on Lewis' part by losing weight to become 'more elusive?' We'll probably find out this answer very early in the season, the weight's back on and he's being asked to be the between the tackles bruiser this offense is built around. If 2008 was a bump in the road this could be a nice last hurrah for Lewis.
OK, fellow Browns fans.... we have 4 NFL titles (50,54,55,64) and 4 AAFC titles (46-49) to our name, so let's not forget that we haven't ALWAYS been this bad...... I was born in 1966, so I haven't been alive for ANY of them, but I DO remember ...
Quick........I'm on the clock in a draft.......I have to go WR here and Braylon is the most talented on the board by far.......I want to grab him, but I dont know what to think of his "so-called" injury, his willingness to give 100% in ...

Draft Analysis
Round 2, Pick 11
Positives Power back, on good offense, with solid offensive line and good supporting cast. Had a bounce back 2007 season, after a couple of down years. Negatives Approching 30, not a big receiving threat, so when browns fall behind loses touches. Not a homerun hitter any more. Draft Strategy Was going wr here, wanted Edwards, AJ, Fitz, or Colston here, none fell, 3 went right before my pick. The answer Jamal Lewis, barring injury, see a solid #2 back, no upside, but not much downside. Should get 300+ carries, 1200+ rush yds 8-9 ru tds and 20+ recepts for 175+ rec yds and maybe a td.
Can't ask for more from a solid #2 back, picked at the end of round 2. (Contributed by: Wolfie)
Round 3, Pick 5
Positives Tough runner; great line; will get goal line touches; good receiver. Can't believe that he was still here at 3.05. Negatives A little "long in the tooth", but should be OK for one more season. Draft Strategy (Contributed by: tlandavazo)
Round 2, Pick 10
Positives He's 15 pounds lighter than last year. The Browns offense is one of the better offenses in the the AFC. He's running behind one of the best O-Lines in the NFL. He has no competition for his job. He should be the workhorse for the Browns offense and score more TDs than last year. Negatives He's getting a little older. Has shown after having a good year he could fall in production. Draft Strategy I could have taken a top WR at 2.10 but Lewis was there and he has a lot of positives. Plus, all the top RBs were flying off the board so I wanted at solid RB2 just in case Westbrook has some injury concerns and I have to run with a RB 3 or RB4 at times this year. I can still land a solid WR at 3.03. (Contributed by: nateb)
