The Browns draft another DB in Brandon McDonald. They must like the versatility of McDonald who can play both Safety/Cornerback and may be Dennis Northcutt's replacement as a punt returner. I like that we are adding talent to the defensive backfield. With the return of last year's 5th round pick Demario Minter, and the drafting of Eric Wright and McDonald, along with young safeties Sean Jones and Brodney Pool, the Browns have developed a solid young core of DB's. Here is the bio.
The Cleveland Browns have selected Memphis cornerback Brandon McDonald in the fifth round (140th overall) with their third pick of the 2007 NFL Draft.
The 5-foot-11, 181-pound prospect played for two seasons at Memphis after transferring from Jones County Community College. In 24 games (23 starts) as a Tiger, he marked 133 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss and 7 interceptions.
At Jones, he earned played receiver in 2003 before moving to defensive back in '04. There, he was an honorable mention All-American, marking 25 tackles and 8 interceptions.
McDonald also has return skills and could be candidate to replace Dennis Northcutt as the Browns' punt returner. He returned 46 punts for 305 yards at Memphis and also returned punts at Jones.
