Source: Deal Done; Coles For Moss

brunnell aint going nowhere, so you guys might as well quit dreaming. but it would be nice.

moss didnt live up to the hype. its sad but in my opinion its a lose-lose situation

Cutting or trading Brunell is impossible for us now. Trading Coles has pushed us snug against the cap (I believe we have less than $3M in space now. Canuck, care to give us some exact numbers?) I think that we are now much more likely to trade down from #9, so that we can pay our selection a smaller SB. I predict that when the offseason is all said and done, we will be VERY close to the spending limit. I'm sure Gibbs will leave a little big of wiggle room to sign one or two players during the season (just in case Hall decides to get injured again) but we can't expect any more than that.

I am glad it's done who know's with Cole's toe problem if he will ever be 100% we have a healthy reciever who is a special team's game breaker, Moss is a very nice addition, I also have to figure that Cole's signed off on the $5mil bonus because he recieved a new deal with the Jet's and another signing bonus, I still think we need a big physical reciever to go with these guy's I don't know if we have a true #1 at this point, but it does give us a little flexability come draft time nobody can hold us to the grindstone on any particular player.

It's not that I hate the trade, it's just I think we could've gotten SOME kind of additional compensation (i.e. mid-round draft pick).

Just read in another thread that we already paid him his salary bonus? If that's so I would have let him rot on our bench, kind of funny how he held up the deal with the Jet's now all of a sudden it's ok, I would like to see the conformation of that first, anybody know for sure?

Moss, Thrash, Jacobs, Patten

some really nice speed there

Don't forget either Mike Williams or Troy Williamson.

We basically won't have a true #1 wideout - rather, we'll have a deep, if unspectacular, wideout corps.

That said, with Gibbs running 2-3 wideout formations more often than not, I'm not sure depth is what we need. The lineup doesn't sound so bad, but I think it's far better suited to a Spurrier-run offense with 3-4 wideout sets.

Talk about speed though. I don't know how it will work with this Offense but at least we have two guys who can gain separation down the field!! It's a good deal for the skins. Who knows if Coles will ever get his toe taken care of and he didn't want to be here anyway.

And isn't Antonio Brown the fastest of them all?

Moss & Patten will be a nice addition to your team. Congrats!
