Browns CB Wright OK after car crash Browns CB Wright OK after car crash Updated 10/23/2009
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Police say Browns cornerback Eric Wright flipped his car on a wet highway entrance ramp and was taken to a hospital. Wright was examined at MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland after the accident early Friday and then released. Coach Eric Mangini said he's happy Wright is safe and is hopeful he can play Sunday. Analysis: We're glad Wright is OK since he's a promising NFL cornerback prospect. However, his Fantasy value is minimal because he doesn't post enough stats to warrant use regularly. Keep him off of rosters for now.
Browns defenders pitch in Browns defenders pitch in Updated 10/11/2009
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Notable Browns defenders from Week 5 at Buffalo include: LB D'Qwell Jackson (13 total tackles), LB Kamerion Wimbley (11 total tackles, sack), DB Eric Wright (four total tackles, interception) and DE Kenyon Coleman (two total tackles, sack). Analysis: Of these defenders, Jackson is a must-start in IDP play because of his penchant for total tackles. Wimbley is worth a look off waivers as he has a sack in all but one game this season -- the Browns' coaching staff is doing good things with him. Wright and Coleman aren't productive enough to warrant Fantasy use. The Browns play at the Steelers in Week 6.
Wright likely good to go Week 5 Wright likely good to go Week 5 Updated 10/9/2009
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Cleveland DB Eric Wright (hand) has been listed as probable for the team's Week 5 game at Buffalo. Analysis: Wright is a decent low-end Fantasy DB in IDP formats and should be active for Cleveland's Week 5 game.

News: Browns DB Eric Wright made four tackles and stripped the ball from RB Cedric Benson in a Week 16 loss to Cincinnati. Analysis: Wright is a decent low-end Fantasy DB in IDP formats heading into Week 17 at Pittsburgh.

Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright recorded three tackles and recorded a fumble in a Week 14 loss to the Titans. Analysis: After making three picks in his first five games, Wright has slowed down as the season's gone on. Still, he's worth starting in deeper IDP formats when the matchup is favorable. He could be a nice start in Week 15 at Philadelphia.
Browns defenders help in loss Browns defenders help in loss Updated 11/2/2008
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: In the Browns' 37-27 loss vs. the Ravens, notable Browns defenders include: LB D'Qwell Jackson (11 total tackles, sack), DT Shaun Rogers (nine total tackles, sack), CB Brandon McDonald (seven solo tackles) and CB Eric Wright (five solo tackles). Analysis: Jackson, Wright and Rogers are the only useful Fantasy options in IDP league play. The Browns will have no time to rest as they host the Broncos this Thursday as part of Week 10 action.
E. Wright returns pick for score E. Wright returns pick for score Updated 10/14/2008
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright intercepted his third pass of the season Week 6 against the Giants and returned it 94 yards for his first career touchdown. He also had two solo tackles. Analysis: With three interceptions this season, Wright is no worse than a No. 3 DB in IDP leagues. He might continue to rise up the ranks with performances like this one. Consider taking a flier on him off the waiver wire.
Wright gets intereption Wright gets intereption Updated 9/28/2008
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright had seven tackles and an interception Sunday at the Bengals. Analysis: Wright is a good No. 3 DB in IDP leagues. Consider him a good bye-week replacement most weeks. Cleveland is on a bye in Week 5 and plays the Giants in Week 6.
Wright, Hall chip in for Browns defense Wright, Hall chip in for Browns defense Updated 9/21/2008
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright (eight tackles) and DL Alex Hall (seven tackles, sack) both had nice performances in a Week 3 loss to the Ravens. Analysis: Wright has some value in deeper IDP leagues as a low-end Fantasy DB, while Hall doesn't make enough plays on a consistent basis to have any Fantasy impact. The Browns visit the Bengals in Week 4.
DB Wright has good rookie year DB Wright has good rookie year Updated 1/24/2008
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright appeared in 14 games with 13 starts in 2007, which was his rookie year out of UNLV. He finished with one interception, one sack and 76 tackles (71 solo). Analysis: Wright will continue to improve in 2008. Consider Wright a No. 3 DB in IDP leagues with the chance to see his value rise.

News: Browns DB Eric Wright had two tackles Sunday at the Bengals. Analysis: Wright is a low-end DB in IDP leagues but is worth starting in Week 17 against the lowly-49ers.

Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright (knee) is listed as questionable for Week 14 at N.Y. Jets. He went through limited practice reps all week. Wright has missed the last two games after tallying 68 tackles, one sack and one interception in the first 10 games. Analysis: Wright said before missing the game Week 13 against the Cardinals that he would only return to action as soon as his body allows it. He has emerged as a viable No. 3 Fantasy DB when healthy, but Fantasy owners will need to track his progress on a week-to-week basis. He has not yet been cleared for Week 14.

Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns DB Eric Wright (knee) is listed as doubtful for Week 13 at Arizona. Wright took limited practice reps Friday after missing the previous two days. Wright, who missed his first game Week 12, is not sure when he will return. "When I'm ready I'll be out there," Wright told NFL.com. "I'm doing everything I can to get back. When I'm ready to roll out I'll be out there ASAP." Analysis: The rookie out of UNLV is having a solid campaign with 68 tackles, one sack and one interception. He has emerged as a viable No. 3 Fantasy DB when healthy. He might not make it back to the field Week 13, so Fantasy owners might need to keep him reserved another week.

Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: The Browns inactives for Week 12 against Houston include QB Ken Dorsey (3rd QB), DB Eric Wright, DB Ricardo Colclough, RB Jerome Harrison, DL Ethan Kelley and WR Travis Wilson. Analysis: Only Wright has Fantasy value in IDP leagues. Keep him reserved for Week 12 as well as all the other players.
Rookie Wright out for Browns Rookie Wright out for Browns Updated 11/23/2007
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Browns rookie cornerback Eric Wright will miss Sunday's game against the Houston Texans with a sprained right knee he insists is not as seriously injured as has been reported. Wright got hurt on Cleveland's first defensive play last week in Baltimore. He was helped off the field and carted to the locker room. "It's something that looked worse than it really was," Wright said before Cleveland's injury report came out Friday. "I got it twisted up a little bit." Analysis: Earlier this week, a TV report said the Browns feared Wright would miss four to six weeks. Daven Holly, who made 12 starts last season, will likely replace Wright in the starting lineup alongside cornerback Leigh Bodden. When healthy, Wright is a good No. 2 Fantasy DB.
Browns banged up on defense Browns banged up on defense Updated 11/21/2007
Eric Wright, CB CLE
News: Cleveland rookie DB Eric Wright and three other Browns starters missed practice Wednesday with knee injuries. Wright sprained his right knee on his first play in Sunday's overtime win at Baltimore and could miss significant time. He was helped off the field and carted to the locker room for treatment. Wright underwent an MRI exam earlier this week, but Browns coach Romeo Crennel, taking a page from former boss Bill Belichick, was tight-lipped when asked about the player's condition or his chances of playing this week against Houston. Earlier this week, Browns play-by-play announcer Jim Donovan reported the team expected Wright to miss four to six weeks. If Wright can't play, Daven Holly likely will start in his place. Holly started 12 games last season and three this year. DL Shaun Smith and DL Ethan Kelly also missed practice with knee problems. Analysis: Wright is a No. 2 DB in IDP leagues, so continue to monitor his status. Smith and Kelly have minimal Fantasy value. The Browns DST is not a recommended option for Week 12 against Houston.
