Up-and-comer?
Kellen Winslow II?
It's what our expert panel voted: The Cleveland Browns' young tight end is the best up-and-comer at the position right now.
True, in the two seasons that have passed since Winslow was selected by the Browns with the sixth overall pick in the NFL draft, he has appeared in all of two games.
That's right, two games.
Winslow certainly has nowhere to go but up  and from where's he's coming, the motivation certainly is there.
He indicated as much to reporters last week when he returned to the field for an offseason workout that represented his first time actually being an honest-to-goodness member of the team since his rookie season. "Now, it is my time," he says. "I've had a lot of time to think about it, a lot of time I spent with my family, and it's good to be back."
A glimpse at Winslow's injury history:
• He began his pro career as a starter and came up with a team-high four catches for 50 yards, the longest of which went for 21. Next time out, against the Dallas Cowboys, he opened with a catch for 11 yards but broke his right leg during an onside kick. The injury knocked him out for the season.
