Redskins Expected to Release Coles

Yeah that's right, I said Coles

Washington Redskins wide receiver Laveranues Coles has had at least two extensive conversations with Coach Joe Gibbs since the season ended which are expected to lead to his release from the team, according to sources familiar with the situation.

Guess that cements the fact we'll be drafting a WR. This is a disaster...
I am in shock...complete f&^%ing shock. Holy crap this is bad.

Is that even POSSIBLE from a cap standpoint?

It will be interesting to see how much of his bonus he gives back and what the Redskins do with the money.

What I don't get is why is it better to waive him than trade him? I guess it's because he wouldn't return part of his money otherwise.

He is giving back part of his bonus to alleviate cap concerns. That is how much he wants out. He is actually going to pay the Redskins to release him. The NFLPA is going to crap a brick. I am crapping a Buick as we speak.

WHAT THE F**K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well our wide reciver situation just went from rock bottom..... to rock bottom, 50 ft of crap... then us.....

You have got to be freaking kidding me.

After reading the article I have much more insight... Wow - he thinks Gibbs offense is THAT bad. That's not a good preliminary report for next year.

If Coles wants to be part of a "vertical offense" he could join Norv in Oakland....so is a Coles for Porter trade possible?

I don't even know what to think of Coles right now, but hopefully this means more playing time for Taylor Jacobs.

Is he goign to also give us a first round draft choice back?!?!? How can they just give in to his wants like this. hes signed, paid for, healding and producing. Make him suck it out and tell him he will get the deep ball. What the heck

Coles thinks Gibbs' offense in 2004 was bad for him, but even Gibbs has said he's going to open it up next year
