Coles is a good receiver but is overpaid and is not a great #1 WR. Yes I know he catches 90 passes and has 1200 yards and that's nice.

Now go and dig up the stats on his TD catches as a Redskin...

Lead receivers catch lots of passes and they make others look good AND THEY GET INTO THE END ZONE more than once every three or four games!!

A top flight WR - one who is getting paid what Coles is getting paid or maybe a bit more - scores touchdowns. Compare scoring stats for Coles, Moss, Owens, Harrison, Horn, Chad Johnson over the past three years. Compare him to Charles Johnson over the past two years (Johnson was not in the NFL 3 years ago) and Javon Walker over the past two years. Hell, compare him to Jimmy smith over the past three years even though Smith has been out all this season!
