Are we better without Winslow as a Tight end?
-
I'm not sold on us being better off without Winslow, but it seems to me that if Heiden continues to play the way he is, and we're sold on Rucker as the #2 at TE, let's get something for him at the end of the season. This staph thing is just one of several problems we've had with him, but the guy can play and would probably command a nice price. Hell, if we could get a decent addition to our linebacking corps at the end of the season, I'd pull the trigger on that in an instant.

Im going to agree with Ohio Brownie on this one. K2 is the best tight end in the league and he is our number one no matter what. The problem is not with Kellen, Its with DA. DA feels the need to drill it to Kellen when he isnt even open, Kellen is DA's security blanket. If we had a different QB, this wouldnt even be a question. Dont get me wrong, Heiden is a beast, he another really damn good TE, which is why I think we need to have more 2 TE formations, that would throw defenses crazy, because they would have to account for Winslow, Heiden, Lewis, Stallworth, and Edwards. That is a nightmare.
DA needs to be taught that kellen shouldnt be used as a scapegoat.
Want to know why else I dont think our team is better with Heiden at the role? Because Kellen broke team records last year and we won 10 games with him as the starter.

With that thinking. DA came close to breaking almost every passing record, and the Browns won 10 games last year. But you and most feel that BQ is better.
Does it just so happen that the Browns and DA's two best games are with hieden? Or is he truely a better fit. We all know he is not better but he might be a better fit.

remember the 4th down pass play to Heiden, ...Winslow would of scored! Heiden got caught from behind and we settled for a field goal!Heiden is Good, he does what is expected, but you must remember,.. Winslow he comes from Good Stock!
With Winslow on the field that play doesn't happen. Nothing against Winslow but having Heiden in there helps fool the D.

I think we are without a doubt at least just as good without Winslow. We're a better running team and we have a couple solid pass catching tight-ends without Winslow. If we can get a high pick for him, take it without hesitation.
As much as I hate to say this, I think Winslow may get a little of the "Quinn" treatment. People think he's better than he is because he's so highly touted and because he looks so good in a jersey/pads. Ship the guy out if we get something for him. We've learned consistently over the past few years that good teams are not made of 1st round wide receivers/tight ends. They're made of offensive lineman and defensive lineman. In Winslow's 4(?) years here, I don't think I've seen him have impact on a single game the way Shaun Rogers did yesterday or the way our offensive line has over the past year and a half.

He will never fill his fathers shoes though.

You mean the thing Phil Savage wanted him to keep quiet?
Not entirely sure that Kellen is the bad guy in that case.

I say no. I think Winslow is the most consist Brown on O
