the postons are jokes, they always recommend holding out to try and pressure teams into more money... they've gotten their way, but at a high price... some clubs have stopped dealing with them, and each time they rachet for another million, more bridges burn... i can't believe anyone would bother dealing with them.

This makes me more glad each day that we picked Taylor. It would be real funny if Kellen sits out all the way through our matchup with the Browns.

He turned down a contract to make him the highest paid TE ever!!!! More than Gonzalez, more than Shockey. And he turned down a contract equal to Taylor. 60 receptions last year x 5 years = 300 total receptions in a 20million $$ contract that's $66,666.67 a reception!
I hope this chucle-head holds out all pre-season.
What a jackass.
Winslow Sr says Taylor got a bad deal

hes going to get more than shockey, hands down. He was drafted a lot higher and Shockey is still on his rookie contract. And its not unrealistic for him to get more than Tony to, the thing is that he was the 6th pick in the draft, which be default gets him a lot of money even though hes just a te.

Im glad we didnt pick winslow.It sounds like he would have rubbed J.G the wrong way and would have been a waist of a pick.Taylor was the correct choice for the team (imo).I can just see the Postons sitting with the Browns F\O asking where the F there fruit basket is !!!

I think it is extremely unusual for a player to get a higher rookie contract than the top player at his position. Even Eli at number 1 did not come close. That last statement sounds like something his agent would say... LOL

Eli at number one has the second most guaranteed (bonus) money in the history of the NFL. That's nothing to sneeze at. If his brother didn't sign for $34.5 million in bonus money a few months ago, he would be first.
