Jets Release Coles!!!

...and perhaps sign him again at a lower price. He said he left on good terms

 

I always liked LC. To bad he was a baby. Im not sure about all this cutting we are doing.

 

its about time. hopefully tanny has something up sleeve to replace him (Boldin, Ocho "Stinko" Cinco)

 

He'll be a Dolphins by next Tuesday.

 

So are we still on the hook for his $7 million? The article didn't sound like we were but it never clarified.

 

Mutually agreed to part ways=We're off the hook for the money!!!

Woo-hoo!

This is great news!

 

i think they're looking more at housh

 

addios amigo thank god he is gone

 

Sounds like Coles renounced the guaranteed deal so he could become a FA (and get a bigger, longer deal). So I don't think the Jets owe him a dime.

 

Hallelujah!

...a real rebuilding process has begun.

 

Right here:

If he's a free agent, we owe him nothing. We may be on the hook for the $1 million in bonus though.

 

Something we agree on.

Not sure if that's anywhere on the board. But yes, Coles is cool with it...I'm no cap genius, but this is great for us, is it not?

Edit: Just saw it on the first page...My bad. But as far as I can tell, this is awesome.

 

I really hope we pick him and Baker back up

 

I always liked Coles, I thought he was a pretty good receiver for us and made some big plays. I understand it's a business but I'm going to hate it if he goes to Miami.

Dammit.

 

We better replace him because we need guys to help out our weak QB position.

 

If he is off the books, then hell yeah! I like LC, but he whinned a bit too much for my liking. But I will miss those great catches, and will not miss some of the "should have caught blind folded" drops.

 

Good. I was getting really tired of his big mouth and #4 production. Fuck him. I like what this new administration is doing so far.

 

Well, maybe he'll be reunited with his BFF in Miami.

Happy trails, Coles. Thanks for your contributions.

I guess I'll finally be able to buy his jersey for cheap!

 

I totally see this coming... of course it isn't too bad for us. Be nice to have him there one more year, but he's had a couple of tough seasons injury wise and we might as well move on at this point. LV played with a lot of heart for us though, and I respect that.
