Winslow would be perfect for this team if we really believe in Jordan Cameron and we don't bring back Watson.
Winslow is a spot starter who could teach Cameron how to use his athleticism to his advantage.
If we believe that Cameron will be a #1 TE, we should bring in K2 just to have an insurance policy should the Cameron experiment backfire. K2 would be cheap and is uber talented. Chud also knows how to use him. And he's from The U. |

Word. He can bring the 7th Floor Crew to C-Town |
I love Olsen, but would Carolina be willing to trade him after they signed him to a 4 yr contract extension. Good thing....His guaranteed $$$ is paid in full besides workout bonuses. So they're just incurring his base salary. It won't cost them anything guarantee-wise. So if that's the case, what do you give up? _________________

Why do the Browns need to bring in one of the tight ends mentioned in the OP? Why can't Jordan Cameron develop into a top tight end? Considering how raw and inexperienced he is, I thought he looked pretty solid last year. He's got a lot of potential and simply needs to learn how to develop his talent. If anyone could get the best out of Cameron, it's Chud. _________________ Cleveland Browns Forum Hall of Fame Inductee

Travis Kelce is the most over looked and underrated TE in the draft. He is the most versitile TE in the draft by far as well. He can play and has played in line TE, slot and split out wide. He is a great blocked maybe even the best overall in the draft. He may not be as good a man up blocker as Michael Williams, however, Cincinnati used him all over blocking. He was used on traps, a pulling lead blocker, to seal the edge on sweeps, lead blocker on ISOs.
He can block, run routes and make plays from anywhere and everywhere on the field. Not only is this a projection of what he can do in the future in the NFL, but he has already proven to be able to do all these things as well.
I have consistantly seen him mocked in here as a 4th and 5th rounder. The fact is that is simply not going to happen. When April rolls around we are going to be lucky if he is still on the board at #68.
And for more unpopular opinions from KamTrus I have recently seen my early favorite FS being touted as Top 10. I would be thrilled out of my mind if we landed Kenny Vaccaro at #6 _________________

As Chud is a great TE coach, Jordan Cameron still couldn't unseat Ben Watson and Alex Smith this year. 22 games played, 26 catches - 259 yes - 1TD. That's with Colt (the TE targeter) & Seneca playing QB last year, and a 16 game schedule this year. If you can't unseat 2 TEs on the roster ahead of him, how are going to become amazing in 1 offseason? Chud? Chud is amazing and the kid is raw, but why not bolster a position that is very very weak? 50+ mil to get things right this offseason. Start with a position that Chud can dominate with. Give him a weapon to keep defenses honest. I hope Cameron is the only one that stays, but only til his contract is done or he finally proves himself. This game has became so advanced at the TE position, it's make something happen or get out. Brady made Hernandez & Gronk? Brees made Gates & Graham? Who was the QB for Fred Davis last year? How about Kyle Rudolph....Ponder? VD in Frisco? We can go on and on, but you get my drift.....I'm not dawging on you brother, but in this phase of the game.....go get a producer. Don't sit and wait around when you have 3 opportunities.....$$$$$, Coaching & talent available. _________________

I wouldn't be against signing Finley, if he is indeed released.
I get the frustration of his drops, especially because he is wide open so often. Dude is a matchup nightmare. A weapon the browns sorely lack over the middle. _________________ There's always money in the banana stand |

Sign a TE in FA and draft one as well..
I have little to no faith in Cameron contributing in a major role. _________________

Getting these two with our top 2 picks would be sweet. _________________ Everything happens exactly the way it is supposed to happen...otherwise, it would happen some other way |
