Signing Winslow
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1791087
Looks like the Browns might have a hard time signing Winslow. Suckers! |

"The Postons also represent St. Louis tackle Orlando Pace, who was franchised by the Rams and is seeking more money. Other Poston clients include New England cornerback Ty Law, San Francisco linebacker Julian Peterson and Washington linebacker LaVar Arrington. All have had contract problems."
Geez, we should avoid these guys' clients like the plague. We need to have an intervention with LA and convince him to switch agents. As for Winslow, sounds like he'll be getting his. |

I said it in another post about the Postons these guys seem to have almost cornered the market on NFL head cases. If they didn't represent Lavar I would say the Skins should have nothing to do with them.

LeBron never held out. LeBron is actually quite modest, he has a certain cockyness, but you need that. Unlike Carmello Anthony, Lebron doesn't think he's the best player in the league.

i know this is a bit off topic but when did i miss anthony saying or acting like he thought he was the best player in the league cuz honestly all i've heard about the guy is how mellow(pun intended) he has been all year especially with the constant comparisions to lebron and himself? |

All these guys are contract savvy these days. I wouldn't go pissing in the Browns milk until we have Sean Taylor signed.

The reason why LaBron never held out (i think) is their is a certain amount that a rookie can make in the NBA. Of course got the max so their was not anything really to negoiate. As far as endorsements LaBron has some good ones but Im sure he missed out on some too thanks to the Poostons. Also look who has the #1 selling jersey in the NBA. Why it is LaBron. Hopefully he did not listen to his agent on that one.

you cant argue the fact that the Postons get their clients money, they usually get their clients more money then anyone in the league. But because they want the most money they are going to end up causing more problems. Ty Law, Pace, Arrington...all got record contracts. The stuff with Lavar is whats really giving them a bad name. As well as the rumors that Pace got offered like a 35 million dollar signing bonus, is seeking 28 and they turned it down
Im glad Smoot got new agents, he had them up until a few months ago. That will help our negioations with him.

I heard the Postons say that a lot of people had Winslow #1 on their boards, and would take that into account when they state their demands. And that they dont want the traditional 10% over last years number six pick. Right after they said that Winslow said he wanted number 6 money since he was the number 6 player. When you have to make statements about the statements that yoru agents say right from the get go you know your in trouble.

So this is interesting. I wanted to see if Winslow had his own website a la Terrell Owens.
So check out what happens when you visit http://www.kellenwinslow.com/
