Who is more important?
Posted July 10th, 2008 by Luke Chandler
This past week's Whispers column by PFW brought up an interesting tidbit.
"According to a source close to the club, Browns WR Braylon Edwards, who has only two years left on his contract, is in line ahead of TE Kellen Winslow when it comes to getting a new deal. Winslow, whose contract has been the source of offseason speculation, has three years left on his rookie deal."
So the question is, why Edwards before Winslow? Who knows, but apparently taking a helicopter ride to an Ohio State-Michigan game and then missing a team meeting ranks lower as a transgression than crashing your motorcycle.
In other news, K1 (Kellen Winslow Sr.) is the finalist for Central State's Athletic Director job, per Kyle Nagel of the Dayton Daily News.
And while we all know about the ongoing knee issues of Joe Jurevicius, people may not realize how important he is to the Browns offense. Terry Pluto talks about how efficient Joe was at moving the chains. That's something that Donte Stallworth likely won't be doing.
Finally, the schedule for Training Camp has been released.
Just in, good thing the Browns didn't trade for Jaguars wide receiver Matt Jones. He was arrested on felony drug charges in Fayetteville, AR. Jones was in a car cutting up cocaine with a credit card, and at the time of his arrest admitted to officers that their was cocaine on his credit card.

The helicopter ride and absence from the team meeting didn't cause Edwards to miss a full season or have lingering knee problems.

the giants won a super bowl without jeremey shockey. that proves that you can win without a prolific pass catching TE.

Winslow has done severe and permanent damage to his knee. He has not played a down without pain. He may not be around when his three year deal is up. Edwards is healthy.
