Winslow was the No. 6 overall pick out of Miami in 2004 and Edwards was the No. 3 overall pick out of Michigan in 2005. In fact, they talk often about resurrecting the Browns.
“As a tight end and receiver, we think we can change and revolutionize the game,” Edwards said.
Developing rapport
The two also have been spending a lot of time with quarterback Charlie Frye, who had planned to work out in Arizona in January and February, but came back to be with Edwards and Winslow.
Often, they watch film together at the Browns facility.
“I love watching film with Charlie,” Winslow recently told clevelandbrowns.com. “I want to learn how the quarterbacks learn. I want to learn what everybody’s supposed to do.”
Edwards said the trio has “one of those Marvin Harrison-Reggie Wayne-Peyton Manning type deals going on. They have their own little code. When you have guys that work well together, there’s no limit to what they can do.”
Upon the advice of the medical staff, Edwards declined to share details of his rehab, but is still targeting the start of the season. Winslow is expected to participate in the June minicamp and told the team’s Web site he’s been working out six to seven days a week.
“However long Kellen and I are together here — and I hope it’s forever — I don’t see us ever creating space between us,” Edwards said.
“If I need that little kick, I’ll always look to No. 80. I’ll always be there for him and hopefully he’ll always be there for me.”
