Signing Kellen Winslow, 25, to an extension was not a condition of the trade, but rather what the Bucs viewed as an opportunity to lock up one of the league's best young tight ends rather than lose him to free agency after two seasons. "We made the trade with the future in mind," general manager Mark Dominik said Monday. "We consider Kellen a leader on the football team and when you trade away multiple draft picks, you obviously want the player for the long haul. Kellen has demonstrated he's very excited about being part of our community and part of the Bucs. We're excited to have him." Winslow only participated in the first day of a three-day, voluntary minicamp last week. Salty's Thoughts: Big money for a player I feel is damaged goods. We'll see. I wish K2 the best. When he was healthy, and playing hard, he was really fun to watch.

Richest contract in NFL history for a TE? I don't know if he's worth it. There are 4-5 better, more talented, more consistent tight ends in the NFL scratching their heads right now.
