As a lifelong browns fan, I've got to say that I'm happy. I hate Winslow. I don't care how good he is, or how big of a browns fan I am. At some basic level, there has to be a fundamental amount of "root-ability". Just because your drafted by the browns, doesn't mean I'm going to root for you. There's nothing about Winslow that makes me hope he succeeds on any level. Honestly, I hope he never signs and the browns have to trade his rights to somebody else. Or even better, he sits out a year and re-enters the draft. That way butch davis might catch some flak for blowing a high draft pick. The faster the both of those guys (winslow and b.davis) get out of town the sooner I can go back to being the browns fan I once was.
The thought of Winslow signing a 7yr deal with the browns ... whether it's for $40 of $40 million, makes me wanna puke.

I remember Mel Diaper Jr. and Berman crying "The Browns got the steal of the draft! The best player!" blah, blah, blah. What they failed to mention was that you actually have to get him to PLAY, something that may make the pick a killer for the Browns.

Not only does Winslow have talent, he's a "soldjah"!
Good luck, Browns fans...

Larry Fitzgerald signs record high rookie contract - The six-year contract could be worth as much as $60 million and includes slightly more than $20 million in guaranteed bonus money, also a record.

Here's the latest from Lane Adkins on the state of the Winslow contract talks, as relayed in our Ask the Insiders forum:
"Over the past 24-hours, team reps have conducted further discussions with the Poston's regarding a Winslow deal.
According to information provided, the Browns have not upped their offer to Winslow, but discussed specific parameters of a deal that the Poston's request.
Again, all indications are the Poston's want 5-7 million additional dollars, plus achievable bonus incentives that could in reality become 10-11 million dollars above the Browns current offer. A lengthy holdout could be in the offing."

If thats true HH, it means the soldja thinks he is worth 9M or so less than the overall #1 draft pick who is a QB and named Manning.
I am going to type this just to see how ridiculous it looks:
The #6 draft pick is a TE who not only thinks he is worth more than any TE in NFL history, he feels he is entitled to make nearly what a QB taken #1 overall made.
#6 TE = #1 QB
