The Facts:
When the team broke a few weeks ago for a short summer break, Herm Edwards penciled in Brown as his No. 2 back after a strong month of offseason workouts. "Right now, I'm anticipating that Priest Holmes is coming back," Edwards said. "I'm hoping for good reports and (that) he comes back. If not, then obviously Dee Brown is the next candidate, and if there's going to be more candidates, so be it."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As Star staffer Elizabeth Merrill noted, Brown is a 5-foot-10, 210-pound analytical runner with good hands who can make defenders miss in small spaces. Much like Holmes, Brown is a good change-of-pace back for the Chiefs. ... A reminder: Brown, who made failed stops in Pittsburgh, Atlanta and Cleveland, was also a roster casualty in Kansas City last summer. The Chiefs called him back in November, when Holmes went down.
