He probably wanted out ANYWAY and they would have had to OVER PAY him to keep him. I don't know if T.J. was their burner because I did not see too many games of the Bengals, but Coles will be a faster version of Wes Welker.

T.J. was their best receiver the last 2 seasons. He had more catches, TD's, and yards than Ocho.

I agree. I would've made TJ the franchise receiver and would've made room by dropping/trading Ocho Cinco.

Think of this....he went to a team that struggle just as bad as the Bengals in Seattle ...so he was DYING to leave.

5 years for $40m so about $1m more per year.

Realizing he no longer fits in the team’s plans, seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Torry Holt has asked for his release from the Rams, league sources told the Post-Dispatch on Wednesday.

The Rams have been shopping Holt, 32, on the trade market, but so far there have been no takers. Holt is due a $1.25 million roster bonus on March 17, so it’s unlikely he will be a Ram beyond then.

But with free-agent wide receivers being signed daily around the NFL, and hundreds of millions of dollars already spent six days into free agency, Holt is seeking some closure to his time in St. Louis.

You know what gets me about this one? Why would TJ go to a team that is as bad as the one he left? At least in Cinci he had Palmer coming back this year. Head scratcher.
