I don't know whether this is really Browns fantasy news to be posted here in "the Red Zone" or "'Bad News' for the NFL" to be posted on the according thread down on "the Sidelines".  I'll go here this time...  From "The REAL Feed":

SI.com: NFL (04.06.2009 09:24)
MIAMI (AP) -- Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth is pleading not guilty to DUI manslaughter charges from a fatal Miami car crash in which a pedestrian died.

I don't know what to think of this situation, and I'm not sure about Stallworth's fantasy-relevance at this point, either.  But, it is big news rolling off "The REAL Feed":

Braylon Edwards owners,... UH-OH!  From "The REAL Feed":
 
Cleveland Browns put Braylon Edwards on non-football injury list
ESPN: NFL (28.07.2009 17:56)
The Cleveland Browns have placed wide receiver Braylon Edwards on the non-football injury list.

 
I DIGRESS...
    On the other hand, perhaps this means they actually have a viable trade offer on the table for him, and he's on the verge of being on his way to play somewhere else (better).

From "The REAL Feed"...
 
A "man-genius" move if I ever saw one:
 
Mangini decides on Browns starting QB ... but won't tell anyone
NFL.com (07.09.2009 12:54)
Browns coach Eric Mangini has decided on his startingquarterback, and he's keeping it a secret as long as he can.

 
At least, the D appears to be getting a contributor back:
 
Cleveland Browns tackle Shaun Rogers practices, opener possible

Browns Pro Bowl tackle Shaun Rogers practiced after suffering an unspecified injury.
