Coles overpaid, but Robertson not?

I asked a question over at the Jets IFS site, and I think it's one that many of you (Skins fans) would like to hear or read the responses to. Here's the link, and if you feel compelled join the discussion.

but I'm sure with bonuses stretched over 7 Years, it will only help us in resigning other players

Huh?

So Coles' bonus stretched over 7 year wouldn't have???

Coles was not worth the money and was replacable.

YEAH....and that point is FAR from proven yet. They replaced him with Curtis Conway!

Lets take a look at just how worthy Conway is of replacing Coles.
[list=1][*]In TEN seasons, Conway has only played all 16 games in FOUR of them[*]Of those TEN seasons, he has only gone over the 1,000 yard mark THREE times[*]Conway has only played in TWO playoff games in his ten year career. They call that experience?[/list=1]

This sounds like a fan base that is desperate.

i read in an article that the Jets FO may have rushed to get robertson signed in time for camp so that they could avoid more embarrassment! lol. so they got punked and gave the guy 19 million more than their MVP of last year.

Wouldn't be great to see Thomas man handle Robertson, while Ram throws a 44 yard TD to Coles after Morton returned it past mid field on the opening kickoff which was not as long as the Jets had last year

We all do this to some extent. They will hope with all thier might that Coles is a bust. Won't happen though.

Can't think of much more to add. This simple statement by Skinz addresses my thoughts exactly.

Another piece of ammunition for Jets fans is THIS:

They not only gave up COLES for ROBERTSON...but they also gave up another 1st round pick! It was a 2-for-1 trade when they went up to snag Robertson.

So the next time a Jets fan says that if they had to choose between Coles and Robertson they would choose Robertson, also explain to them that they would ALSO have to give up another 1st rounder!

Jets fans have forgotten this, I presume.

rskinsfan10: Already got your back. Went over to the Mets.....excuse me, the Jets site and made a little noise over there. I'm sure that I have made some enemies over there (by agreeing with you and pointing out their own FO's inadequacies)......but as long as I have my Redskins family to back me up......I will be just fine. They are truly no match for us.....ON ANY LEVEL!!!!!!!!!!!
