I wanted rid of Newton for a good few years - nothing to do with his skin colour, everything to do with his play on the field. I was accused of being racist (an F150 I believe is the race-baiting term that is used?). It is what it is. Moving on from Newton was a business decision. Of course he's offended, he was here 9 years (and earned a good chunk of change in the process!), but that's the nature of the game.

We'd have to draft incredibly poorly in those 5 years not to match Watson.

Here's the thing, the entire NFL isn't racist. They're not dismissing Bieniemy because he's black. We don't know what happens in the interviews, but even looking at his coaching record it's hardly stellar - 14 years as a RB Coach? 3 years as an NFL OC? In a system where we're not clear how much input Reid has on the playcalling / game planning? I mean people are acting like it's a huge injustice - he's relatively green. His resume doesn't blow you away.
