What was your opinion of Santana Moss on the Jets?

Moss/Coles is a tossup. Coles is more hardnosed, but Moss is a much bigger threat and a way better return man. On a bad offense I'd rather have Moss because he can take a wr screen the distance. The durability is the thing that swings it in Coles favor. Moss missed a lot of games for his hamstrings, IIRC. Would have been nice to have both, the way it should have been.

They got Moss for Coles, but they got Coles for nothing.

If they "overpaid" Coles then why did we trade to get him back and give him a raise in a new deal?

I wouldn't say they got Coles for "nothing." They got Coles for the 13th pick in the draft (which ended up being Ty Warren). Then they gave Coles a giant SB. Then they traded him 2 years later, absorbing a huge cap hit. Then they gave Santana Moss a big SB as soon as the trade was completed.

I'd have to say that overall these two players have not worked out for Washington, regardless of their individual skill sets, when you consider what they gave up.
