Bran4020 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I found this posted on the Jets Forums! http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/ http://www.jetsinsider.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=45821&st=0& Jets Acquire Coles in Exchange for Moss The New York Jets announced Wednesday the re-acquisition of wide receiver Laveranues Coles via a trade with the Washington Redskins in exchange for wide receiver/punt returner Santana Moss. The announcement was made by Jets’ Executive Vice President and General Manager Terry Bradway. “He brings a physical and dynamic presence to our receiving group and is familiar with our program,” said Bradway. “Laveranues has told us he’s excited about being a Jet again, and he has the mindset to help us win a championship.” Coles, 27, originally entered the National Football League as a third round draft selection of the Jets in the 2000 Draft as the 78th player selected overall (the 13th wide receiver selected). He played for the Jets through the 2002 season before signing with the Redskins as a restricted free agent on March 20, 2003, for which the Jets received the Redskins’ first round draft choice in the 2003 (the 13th pick overall). The Jets subsequently packaged the draft choice obtained for the Redskins and their own first round pick (#22) and traded it to the Chicago Bears in return for the fourth overall pick in the 2003 Draft and selected Kentucky defensive tackle Dewayne Robertson. Coles, a product of Florida State, has played in 77 regular season games through his first five seasons in the NFL, including starts in each of the last 64 games and has recorded 342 career receptions for 4,656 yards for a 13.6 receiving yardage average and 20 touchdown receptions. In 2003, Coles finished seventh in the NFL career-high 90 catches and had 950 yards receiving for a 10.6 average and one touchdown. In 2002, Coles earned his first trip to the Pro Bowl following his 1,204 yard season on 82 receptions and six touchdowns. While with the Jets from 2000-2002, Coles played in 45 regular season games, making 32 starts, and caught 170 passes for 2,502 yards for a 14.7 average and 13 touchdowns. Moss, 25, was the Jets’ first-round choice (the 16th player selected overall (the fourth wide receiver) in the 2001 draft from the University of Miami. In four seasons with the Jets he had 29 starts in 51 appearances, with 151 receptions for 2,416 yards for a 16.0 average and 19 touchdowns. His best season came in 2003, when he posted 74 catches, 1,105 yards and nine scores and was voted as the Club’s Most Valuable Player. He also contributed in the punt return department during his tenure in New York, with 88 returns for 1,052 yards (12.0 avg.) and two touchdowns during the regular season.

Wicked99 Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2008829 NEW YORK -- Laveranues Coles was scheduled to undergo his physical with the Jets on Wednesday night after a slight delay getting into town because of weather problems. Coles was traded to the Jets from the Redskins in exchange for Santana Moss, a deal both sides agreed on Saturday morning. The physicals are the final necessity to complete the Coles-for-Moss trade, a swap of two receivers who were unhappy with their respective teams' conservative offenses last year.
