As stated above, if he came for Vet League Minimum, perhaps with some incentive bonuses attached I wouldnt see it as horrible. But chances are he will come at a much heavier price tag than that.

Coles is a good stop gap until we can get a young deep threat in the draft.

And again, so could P. Surtain and Ty Law when the Chiefs picked them up. Or at least eveyone thought. Surtain at best was serviceable here and there, but never worth what was traded for and paid to him. And well, Ty Law was a joke and a half.

And I'm not arguing that the Chiefs could use a few good recievers. Bowe has the skills, unless the ball is thrown right into the numbers on his chest, and the others, well, we have other recievers on the team?

I just think Coles is not the player he used to be. He isn't going to stretch the field, and I don't really think he is an over the middle kind of guy. I really just believe it will be like watching the Surtain experiment all over again, just on he opposite side of the ball.
