HERE

OMG..... why? I read this on another site and thought it was bs but.....

Pretty amazing...Coles was supposedly very unhappy according to the local beat reporters - didn't think it would come to this. Given the foot injury, I'm surprised he wants to do it...

Oh man....

Three hours back and this is the first Redskins news i get?! This is really shocking to me. I know Coles was unhappy but...

Well, looks like WR has "officially" become our #1 priority...

2Cooley · #8 02-20-2005, 10:21 PM

Well everyone that wanted to give jacobs a chance looks like he will be start if we sign some one or draft and suddenly rod and D-mac dont look so expandable

well guys there goes our season lol i dont know what we are going to do now gibbs bette think of something fast we gotta trade up and get williams now and sign a free agent wideout cause the recievers we got now arent number 1 and number 2 recievers

akhhorus · #11 02-20-2005, 10:22 PM

Wow. I assume that the restructure of his deal will give the skins some cap room. I think this basically assures one thing:
The Skins go hard after Jerry Porter or Derrick Mason
or
The Skins are drafting a WR in the first round.
or both

This changes the entire offseason.

Jero · #12 02-20-2005, 10:22 PM

The question now is, will we try to move up in the draft to try and get Williams? Or hope he or Edwards is around when they pick?

Taylor_36 · #13 02-20-2005, 10:23 PM

What the

Man i hate this news!!! I hope this season the Skins offense is better and has more "big plays" in the passing game, then Coles will be sorry he left. He loves Spurrier too dang much. Not like Spurrier's record in D.C. was great either.
