First, I think K2s attitude is good. All of the great players had that edge, they know they are great and simply want to help the team win. I think the misconception was that there wouldn't be enough balls flying around to keep Winslow happy and that he'd be a malcontent. I've never seen a guy pout on a winning team, even Keyshawn Johnson closed his mouth when the Bucs won a championship.

We took the best fit for us. There is no rush to get an agent, camp doesn't begin until the end of the month anyway. I'm not worried at all, Snyder wants to give Gibbs every advantage so Taylor will get his money regardless of who his agent is. The actual contract negotiations will be pretty swift, I just think Taylor may be on guard because he had to get rid of his last agent. Not sure what happened there, but he'll be in camp and hitting as soon as it opens up.

Taylor & KWII

Taylor - two week hold out at most.
KWII - two 1/2 week hold out, just to wait to see what the guy before him gets.

Why does KWII care what Taylor gets, people had him number one on some boards remember, so he wants number one money. lol

I wouldn't try to project holdouts for any player (with the possible exception of KWII). I don't think any first round picks have signed yet, and if they have, they certainly weren't top ten picks. This is usually a slow process, and Taylor has made no statements that he intends to prolong it. The Postons have even backed off their statements about #1 money - so KWII may be safe as well.

There you go.

I'm wrong all the time. Just ask my wife.

we're not at crunch time yet; most signings happen in mid-July, just prior to camp. But I (and I'm sure everyone else) would feel better if Taylor would get an agent at least.

We would have had more trouble with KW II than Cleveland will, given our prior relationship with the Postons and the Lavar fiasco. I think both Taylor and KW will be great NFL players. BUt I'm happy with the one we got.
