The Dolphins' Ronnie Brown was one of the biggest surprises of the season last year as he was playing at an elite level before suffering a season-ending knee injury against the Patriots. Despite only playing in seven games in 2007, Brown combined for 991 total yards and six touchdowns for the lowly Dolphins. If you factor in that during the team's first two games he only mustered 65 yards and 0 TD's, you get a better gage for the month he was having at the time of the injury.

Brown had his participation limited during team drills that featured limited contact, according to the Sun-Sentinel. However, Brown made sharp cuts on the surgically-repaired right knee he injured against the Patriots back in October. It generally takes nine to 12 months for an ACL injury to fully heal and he seems on schedule.

Where will Brown fall on fantasy cheat sheets heading into this season?

That's the million dollar question. There are so many factors to consider: Bill Parcells arrival, new head coach, Ricky Williams' role, Miami's shaky QB situation, and let's not forget about the ACL he had to have surgically repaired.  With all this in mind, the former No. 2 overall pick appears to be one of fantasy football's biggest enigmas this off-season.

It is a situation that you will want to monitor very closely during training camp and the preseason. If I had to draft today, I look at Brown as late Round 2 or early Round 3 pick and probably put him somewhere between 15 and 20 on my board at the position. Understand though that he comes with high risk and high reward. Brown could easily be a top five fantasy RB if he fully recovers and secures the bulk of the workload in Miami.
