Was checking up on a few NFL Sites, and they are saying something about the Browns trying to land a CB.


 


Apparently Phil said he'd like to make a
player-for-player trade for a CB during an interview on Sirius. The
name Youboty popped up somehow. He was a 3rd round pick of the Bills in
2006 and was in danger of losing his nickle corner job before Buffalo
drafted Leodis McElvin and Reggie Corner this year.


The Bills also wanted to add WRs with size. Might we send our 2006
3rd round bust (Travis Wilson, 78th overall) to Buffalo for their 2006
3rd round bust (Youboty, 70th overall)? We need CBs and the Bills have
more than they need. They need big wideouts and we have a surplus
there.



Was on FF, actually. Just copied what he stated. Would be nice adding a former OSU CB for a overrated Travis Wilson. Hopefully it happens.

I'd do that in a heartbeart and I don't even think Youboty is that good.
