    Looks like they may move Desir to FS after this move.

      Wasn't he a very high draft pick a few years ago? First rounder I think.

      So, maybe he has talent...but needs direction, and hopefully Pettine can give him that.

      What I think this signing says is that Pettine does not think highly of Leon McFadden.

        He was an undrafted freeagent.

          No. You are thinking of Eric Berry with KC

              Says he's been in trouble and has talent, but Lions cut him anyways due to the problems he's had. Apparently Pettine thinks he can fix that. Will be some nice depth at this position if so.

                Not exactly up to the character standards of our prior FAs and draft... but then appears he only has trouble with a legal substance.

                  Just adding to the competetion. Will be a tough fight to make the team in our secondary, which surprisingly was a weakness of ours just last season...

                  Top to bottom, this is the deepest offseason roster I've ever seen the Browns have... there will be some fierce competetion to make the 53-man come training camp and preseason. Should be good for the team...

                    ILB will be one of the least competitive ones. D back field and our stable of rb's will be hell on wheels this year. Last year, they were some of our biggest needs. Its looking good on paper so far.

                      The Texans looked great on paper last year when people were picking them to make the Super Bowl but we all know how that turned out.

                      I agree, though. It looks better than past years.

                          Don't know much about this guy. He's been in some trouble but of course like anyone else says it's behind him. Guess we'll see. If the staff likes him then I guess it's worth while. It sounds like they are looking at him more for special teams then anything else.

                          Would post a link, but I guess I don't know how. any help would be nice.

                              DB, but I'm not sure if it's CB or S. I think CB, because the staff said he was better in man coverage.

                                        he's definitely got the size and build.

                                        wouldn't you know it though, as soon as we get 'hard' at safety the league turns into a no-hit league.

                                        i want to see these guys knock someone the F out.

                                          I think his skill set keeps him at corner.

                                          Corner is the skill position of the D. If he can play it, you keep him there. You only move guys from corner to safety if they can't play the position all that well. Unless you get to having 4 really good corners, you don't switch them to get them on the field.

                                          All teams can sport 3 really good cornerbacks.

                                          If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.
