So actually , when the worst pick you make...
Jerome Harrison was the top-scoring fantasy running back over the final three weeks of 2009, thanks to an obscene workload (35.3 carries per game) and a friendly schedule (at KC, OAK, JAC).
7. Jerome Harrison has been terrible. Harrison fumbled three times in the Browns' two preseason games leading up to Thursday night, to go along with 71 yards on 23 carries. When Montario Hardesty suffered a knee injury early in training camp, everyone thought Harrison had clearly ascended to Cleveland's No. 1 spot again, but suffice it to say Harrison hasn't taken advantage. Plus if you take away a single 71-yard December run against the Chiefs in Week 15, his season yards-per-carry average would've been 4.1; there were only three games out of the 13 he played last season where he averaged better than 4 yards per carry. Unfortunately it appears that Hardesty injured his other knee Thursday night and was seen with a brace on, so it's unclear whether anyone can take advantage of Harrison's struggles. Maybe Hardesty. Maybe James Davis. Maybe Peyton Hillis. Maybe some combination of all of them.

I was lucky enough to have him for those weeks. I did just try to trade him though.
That pick gets better when the Cleveland starter tears his ACL. A lot better.
Well, maybe not...
