The Cleveland Browns have traded tight end Kellen Winslow to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for undisclosed draft picks.

"We appreciate his passion for the game and wish him success in Tampa Bay," Browns general manager George Kokinis said in announcing the move. "The draft picks we have obtained through this deal will give us greater flexibility as we look to infuse more talent and create competition and depth on this football team."

Well. think of it this way...when thinking about the Bucs and the greatest area of need...it certainly isn't TE or G which they are bringing in for visits.

Winslow is good, but don't you think DT, DE, LB or WR would be a good choice?

Sigh. I was happy with TE's Stevens and A. Smith for the most part.

I don't care that TE wasn't a major need, this is still an excellent trade. Winslow has great talent and he is only 25 years old. We finally have another playmaker on offense other than Bryant, and I believe Winslow can cause some mismatches for defense's. We only gave up a 2nd and 5th round pick too.

      Hey guys, remember when we won those meaningless games in 2010 and it cost us the #1 pick and the chance to draft Cam? Oh.... right I get that's more of an extreme example because it got us a HOF caliber QB.  But it's the general concept, you want to win late season games when you have the pieces in place to make a run the next season, we currently are not in that place. Herbert and Sewell are the ones I point to so much, because we literally lost out on 2 franchise different makers by 1 draft slot.  Give us those two players while we still have CMC, Moore, and the rest of the picks we gave up for Bryce, and we'd have been a legit playoff contender the last few years. Draft position matters in the NFL more than any other sport (other than the #1 pick in the NBA in a year with a generational talent).

      It’s so crazy. If we had a shot for pick 1 and there was some generational player there then yeah maybe I could get behind the draft position argument. I’d say most GMs and coaches aren’t diving into the draft right now. They are trying to win games.
