And besides, Coles didn't want to be here. I'd rather let the "core player" who doesn't want to be here walk out the door now, instead of lose a core player next year who does want to be here....

We can agree to disagree, but we DID lose some core guys this year: CB Freddy Smoot and MLB Anotonio Pierce.
Plus we have to make more cuts because we are out of salary cap space to sign our rookies. We were $10M before the Coles for Moss trade. Now we are out of cap space.
