Mark Clayton Q&A

After coming out of Oklahoma as a two time All-American, wide receiver Mark Clayton was taken in the first round by Baltimore where he had to deal with a variety of niggling injuries but still managed to play the majority of their games, he was traded to the St. Louis Rams on September 6th 2010 but has had both of his seasons with the franchise cut short through injuries.

Please post any questions you have for Mark here.
