    Youboty to the Browns? John Clayton thinks so.

    Q: Hey John, with the Browns revamping the defensive line, will they still need another starting-caliber cornerback to be efficient.

    Tom in Canton, Ohio

    A: I think they could use two additional corners. They head into the season with Eric Wright and Brandon McDonald as their starting corners; both were rookies last season. McDonald was a pleasant surprise as a No. 3 corner in the second half of last season, but going to No. 2 is a big jump. General manager Phil Savage will make one or two moves before the start of the season. I'm betting that he'll pick up Ashton Youboty from the Bills in late August.

    In his latest mailbag, John Clayton tackles questions on Tarvaris Jackson's mindset, the 49ers' chances, the Steelers' O-line and much more.


    It sounds like Clayton is assuming he'll get cut. I know we're heavy at CB right now, but it sounds like Youboty is having a pretty good off-season. I saw him making some nice plays in the videos of OTA's and he's been making some plays at TC too. I know most people are down on him and ready to give up, but he's only 24 and he has talent. He's gotta at least be a better option then Cox.

    Even with Cox gone, it will be difficult for Youboty.

    McGree
    Greer
    McKelvin
    Corner
    James

    are all ahead of him. Hopefully the Bills can get a pick for him.

      If Youboty continues to look good, I'd keep him over James, given James' age and problems staying healthy. However I'd first consider moving James to SS.

          Every team has to have on white CB and we all know Fox sucks

            I dunno about James(peterson) ahead of him...Exp -vs- youth...Youboty could still easilly develop....I say we keep him rather then the 5th rounder we would get for him..Or practice squad Corner depending on how Corner plays in pre-season..

              at John Clayton.

              Even Gary Baxter coming off two major operations is a better option at corner than Youboty.

                I've been watching Youboty at camp and he looks good.

                    Funny that you commented about how bad Buffalo's secondary was in the Redskins thread yesterday and now Clayton is suggesting that the Browns should pick up Youboty. I think you have vastly underrated Buffalo's seconday and overrated the Browns. The Browns secondary is nothing to write home about. If they don't get some help they're going to struggle big time this year.

                        It's too bad there's no team overloaded with quality left tackles the way Buffalo seems overloaded with cornerbacks.
                        I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                        I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                          For a Conditional pick, Id move him.

                            Fow what's it worth, I would as well. He may develop into a decent CB, but I think Buffalo has enough developing talent on the roster to move him.

                              you're being kind by saying they are nothing to write home about. they are not good, especially at corner.
