Also, considering the contract they signed Coles to last year, I would say they are not in the market for another receiver. It just isn't financially feasible.

Fair enough, I stand corrected on Gardner's contract. If we could get a 3rd or 4th for him, that would be wonderful. Hopefully some other team will overpay for Gardner similar to how we overpaid for Brunell and Portis.
I still say though, that regardless of who the QB is, our receiving corps won't be up to snuff with or without Rod Gardner. In this league today, unless you're the Patriots, you simply cannot get anywhere if you don't have at least one top notch wideout that is ranked somewhere in the top 5 or 7 in the NFL.
So far, nobody on the Redskins roster, including Laveranues Coles, belongs in the Top Ten of wide receivers in the NFL.
