On ESPN they're reporting that Kellen Winslow JR will probably be holding out until into the regular season. This is not surprising seeing as how he is represented by the Poston brothers, who also represent Orlando Pace and Julian Peterson (both holdouts).

Yeah, I'm not surprised by that either. I guess being the highest paid player in the history of your position isn't enough.
Hearing any Winslow related info reminds me of that Bang cartoon with the Postons and Winslow negotiating with Butch Davis...
"I don't see no fruit basket!"
Hilarious.

I think Winslow is making a mistake. He is just adding to his "disliked" character and he could have really stepped in and proved people wrong this year.

Yeah, I don't think many people disagree with you there. I think the Browns are right to stand firm and not cave in to Winslow's salary cap terrorists... I mean, er, uh... Agents.

It was believed that the Redskins really wanted Winslow in the draft but decided to select Sean Taylor instead simply because they didn't want to deal with Carl Poston. To me, that is definitely a sign to get rid of your agent when he is the cost of your draft position.
Plus, Winslow would have been so much better utilized in Joe Gibbs' system than Butch Davis'.
