The Facts:
Following up on the
ongoing story. ... When the Buccaneers shipped Winslow to Seattle for a conditional pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the move came as no surprise. But we have yet to learn how Winslow will be used in Pete Carroll's vertical-power offense, but one league personnel executive, who spoke with Adam Caplan of Sirius XM NFL Radio, painted a less-than-hopeful picture of the tight end's playing future: "We talked to the Bucs before the draft and talked about (Winslow) further internally," the source said. "We just didn't think he could be more than a rotational player at this point (in his career) after examining his tape and performance."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As NFL.com's Marc Sessler reminded readers, during his best days with the Cleveland Browns, Winslow was an unusual pass-catching threat who caused regular headaches for defensive coordinators. Even in Cleveland's often punchless offense, Winslow could hurt you. He was productive in Tampa, catching 77, 66 and 75 passes in three seasons there from 2009 to 2011. Now, with Zach Miller on the roster, Winslow appears to be heading for more of a situational than leading role.
