Moss and our other receivers benefitted from defenses coverage of Garcon.

You also have to take his injury into the equation. He was hurt in week one. Anything till after the bye week and really till after the Philly game, has to be thrown out. He essentially played on one foot, and to be honest that fact that he played at all is miraculous. I have been dealing with chronic platar facitus in both feet for the last 16 months. I am at the point of surgery. The inflamation does not go away and is extremely painful at times during everyday to the point of limping.
The guy is worth it and considering he just signed his contract and it obviously wasn't completely back loaded makes his salary cap number seem fair.
Bowen and Cofield are paid a little more than I would have guessed, but they were signed to above average deals and have lived up to them at times. At the same time though I do not think I would go about restructuring them at this time nor would I cut them. I would leave them alone unless we needed the space back.
Garcon or Morgan could have their deals reworked to free up some money as well as signing Rak to a long term deal.
