Redskins Expected to Release Coles

I see the Cowboys getting interested in both Smoot and Coles.

WTF?!

I don't like the fact that he's going to be gone, but you all are being a little hypocritical. I'm sorry to say, but if Coles doesn't like the system, I think he should be able to leave. A franchise can cut a guy if he doesn't fit its system, why shouldn't a player be able to leave if he doesn't like the system. To be clear, I am speaking in general, I, in no way, want to see Laveraneus Coles leave the Skins. I love the guy. However, how can everybody get on a soapbox about loyalty from the players when organizations treat it like its a 4 letter word. No organization is loyal to its players anymore, especially not this one. I am a Redskins fan, but I have to say, this team may be reaping what it has sewn for the last few years. I love Coles, I love the Skins. This is a sad day. I'm shocked.

What's unfortunate about all this is the fact that Gibbs is caught in the middle of it. If Spurrier were the coach, I probably wouldn't mind that much, however, if Spurrier were the coach Coles would probably wanna stay. Now what do we do with Gardner? Is he still gone? The passing game is in bad shape.

That is close to enough of a reason to start shootng up a 7-11.

With all due respect to Laveranues Coles, this is great news to me. Coles was miserable and that has a very destructive effect on the atmosphere of the team. Give him credit for not going public – but the players all knew, the coaches – everyone.

We need “all for one and one for all” players on our team. That is what makes for a great team.

In addition, Coles may never get back to his pre injury form and if not, ability wise he is just getting too high a paycheck.

We have an excellent player in Taylor Jacobs who just needs room to blossom, and we may well have Mike Williams on our roster soon.

Gibbs made a typical super classy move in agreeing to release him outright. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That is good also in that in generates the respect of players, and potential free agents.

Speaking of free agents, I hope we get a player like Andre Davis. I hope we pass on those big names – unless the staff really comes to believe they would add a tremendous amount to the ballclub.

A potential lineup could include:

Taylor Jacobs
Mike Williams
Andre Davis
James Thrash

We probably need another free agent, but that is a good group right there in my view.

As far as being unhappy with the offense – those are just comments to be ignored. We are building something special here, and our offense is going to be super. Coles just doesn’t fit in with the kind of team we are building. I wish him well and hope he finds a team that is going to highlight him, and I hope he recovers from his injury soon. We will have an excellent receiving corps without him.

Well it still has to compete with the avatars one, LOL

LOL...all the playmakers are going to be complaining now because Coles is the playmakers avatar

Our WR situation is a F'in disaster. What the hell is going on. Even if it gives us room to sign Pierce and Smoot that leaves us with JAMES THRASH at number 1....are you F'in serious????? We all know what happened with him as number one with the Eagles....nothing. Even if we draft Edwards who I personally have no faith in or Williamson I do not see them being a number 1 their first year. Williams might be the best to come in and make a contribution right away but he still is not going to be a number one this year. We have to at least trade him to get someone who could step in or at least a draft pick and with the cap room go after a big name like Porter and then maybe draft another guy. Taylor Jacobs and James Thrash would be the worst 1-2 in the league and then at 3 we would MAYBE have McCants who is in the dog house with Gibbs for some reason so he will be a non-factor. I just don't see how a team with an offense that played as bad as ours did will lose its top 2 WR's especially a big playmaker like Coles.......this can't be happening

Taylor Jacobs
Mike Williams
Andre Davis
James Thrash

That type of WR lineup remind me of the pre TO Eagles WR lineup.

So I guess no one is sleeping tonight, LOL

Is most everyone off from work/school tomorrow?

I hope you all are right about Jacobs because I haven't really seen it. I'm not sure to what you're all referring. He looked alright, but I don't think Jacobs should be the #1 receiver next year. That just doesn't sound like a good plan to me. Even if we get Williams or the kid outta South Carolina, I don't like the receiving corps next season. This sucks!
