It simply asks, who would you rather have, Coles...or Moss.

Surprisingly, its almost 50/50. Currently Coles is at 51.4 percent with just over 35,000 total votes. We are all Skins fan and thought that people would all say that the Jets are getting the better receiver. This is a pleasant surprise.

Of course this doesnt ask who got the better deal, just the better receiver. Clearly this trade cost us a lot of money, and a first round draft choice. They said in an article I read that Coles will be the second highest paid player this year behind Manning...thats unreal

What? Where did you get the info about us giving up a first round draft choice?

davy · 03-07-2005, 11:53 PM

Coles cost us a 1st round pick originally.

Coles has a screwed up toe - Moss is blazing fast like Coles once was. People see good and bad in both!

SKINSnCANES · 03-08-2005, 12:08 AM

yea I understand why people would vote either way, and could argue either side. Im just surprised that in general it was so even, especially becuase they said that most espn.com voters are in the new york area.

I was at the gym tonight and over heard people discussing this trade. Im in texas right now and both were clearly cowboys fans, but were surprisingly objective instead of stupid and ignornant like most of the cowboys fans I run into

Moss needs our help!!!!!! In the words of P-Diddy VOTE OR DIE!

P.S. This vote is not partisan.

ST21 · 03-08-2005, 01:23 AM

I rather have S. Moss, he's still have alot of upside

jdlea · 03-08-2005, 02:04 AM

I like the Moss, but I'd rather not take the cap hit.

JWsleep · 03-08-2005, 02:11 AM

I agree, jdlea. Also, Moss has been hurt recently too. But the skins didn't wan't Coles if he didn't want to be here.

(I think teams should begin putting stronger clauses in their contracts concerning early release. Like, you've got give some of that bonus back, baby!)

Moss has ben hurt recently, but arent his injuries usually not that serious? Not in the same fashion as Coles toe, which could be a career ending injury if he would ever have the needed surgery done.

not as serious, but instead of playing through them he rides the pine... also remember that the skins run contact drills every practice, not just 2 days a week like most teams...

With all things being equal, Coles is the better, more complete receiver....But with "the toe", all things are not equal, so I would rather have Moss.
Moss had a hammy injury last season, but that isn't something that will linger and seriously affect his production long-term like LC's toe injury.
