Based on the Kendall thing, I kind of believe Coles.

Well all teams have problems with players like Kendall situation so thats does not mean that Coles is the same situation. How many players at age 30 know where they will finish playing football? I'd say not very many. So what if they offer him a new deal which he does not like and could cost him money from the guaranteed money they have offered. He just pouts again. The only thing that will make Coles happy is that guaranteed money along with his new deal which at 30 is a risk for the team. Its not like they have been paying him rookie type money and now he wants a big deal. He has had his big deals and performed below what he has received. I'd like to know what he has received between the Skins and the Jets over the past 5 to 7 years. I'm sure its much more than he has earned.
