NIGHT STALKER Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Laveranues Coles wants a new contract from the Jets and plans to approach the front office "in the coming weeks." Here we go again. Coles is guaranteed $5 million in 2009 and that's more than fair for a receiver coming off one of the weakest seasons of his career who turns 31 on Monday. Coles reportedly played through a torn quadriceps all year, showing his trademark toughness, but he's doubtful to get a raise.

BP Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Maybe Mangini should ask for a raise also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Well if he really played through a torn quad, I do feel a little better about him, but still no new contract... or at least no new guaranteed $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Trade his ass. Enough is enough already with Laveranues. I want him gone. We need to rebuild our offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXtreme Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Trade his ass. Enough is enough already with Laveranues. I want him gone. We need to rebuild our offense. I agree with the trade him part. However, the offense doesn't need to be rebuilt. All we need is a new QB. I'd like to see a QB who is mobile and will run instead of staying in the pocket when theres running room only to throw it into double coverage and hvae it picked off.

kelticwizard Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I wonder if it isn't a ploy by Coles to get traded. The new coach probably will want to build the receiving corps around a younger guy, going down to Miami seemed to reinvigorate Chad's career, Miami still needs proven receivers, plus Coles is from Florida, so..........

kelticwizard Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Come to think of it, what is the deadline for trades? I just wonder if Miami couldn't be persuaded to part with a third or fourth rounder for Coles right now...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETROCK Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Trade his ass. Enough is enough already with Laveranues. I want him gone. We need to rebuild our offense. As long as he's not traded to Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source: Newark Star-Ledger If he had a torn quad that is good because that means if healthy he could still produce. But after the season he had with a lot of drops that means there is no chance of getting extended. They would probably waive him if it wasn't for the guaranteed money.

kelticwizard Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 There were a lot of drops, true. But the only success the Jets enjoyed this year was when Favre and Laveneues were making the connection. When that connection stopped working so did the Jets' offense. Nobody else stepped up to give consistent production in the passing game. I agree he's not getting any raise, though. I think the whole thing is ploy to get traded.

kelticwizard Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I don't blame him, actually. Coles is past 30. He has perhaps two years left at prime athletic shape, if indeed the decline has not already set in. If you were he, would you think your chance to have a great season the next two years are: A) With a new coach up here who doesn't know you and will be looking to revamp the whole offense, A QB down in Miami who is installed as the starter for at least next year and for whom you have always been the No.1 target?

kelticwizard Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I don't get it. Coles gave us the only consistent WR play for any stretch of games this season. That was our win streak. The other guys were usually nowhere to be found at crunch time except occasionally for Keller. Why turn on Coles when the other guys did a disappearing act at critical junctions all year long? At least Coles gave us something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Time for Coles to either reside to a role in the slot or leave. Either is fine with me - but he is not a NFL starting WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Let another team give him a new contract. He's worn out his welcome once again. He's not that great anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 He's a good player IMO, I've always said that. I'd still take him at 100% over Cotchery. That being said he really has worn out his welcome, he's always injured which although he's tough enough to play through reduces his effectiveness in a big way. I like him but I think it's time to move on, no way should he get an extension. Let him re-unite with his buddy in Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see a QB who is mobile and will run instead of staying in the pocket when theres running room only to throw it into double coverage and hvae it picked off. we need more than a qb. we need a big, fast receiver that can make catches deep. Is Marcus Henry on the practice squad or is he cut because he can be that guy if he gets better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
