It’s what the market thinks. It’s what’s on the table. If you have a better offer, you take it. You don’t have one. Deal with it. Everyone knows the Jets situation. They HAVE to move him. There is no leverage. Don’t hate on me. Hate on Tannenbaum.

Revis is great. He’s also a guy who holds out when he’s still got two years left on his contract and insists on extracting every penny he can get.

It’s not a question of what you trade for him, it’s a question of whether you want to carry that contract. He’s out with an ACL and he can only shut down one side of the field at his best. The Jets need a rebuild, not an expensive all pro at one position and everyone knows that. That’s why it’s hard to trade Revis for serious draft picks. Anyone who gives up draft picks for a one year contract is crazy, so you have to negotiate a long term deal with the guy and negotiating an expensive long term deal with a guy who’s hurt and doesn’t really want to honor more than the first two years of the deal is tricky.

really a second rounder?! Thats all! F-that. Signed a jets fan

If the Jets dont trade him they will get nothing after he plays next year on a very bad Jets team.The Jets wont even make the playoffs next year so what good is it to keep him for one more year and pay him over $10 Mil.And he is coming off an ACL.You better take what you can get Jet fans after another team screw up.Sorry,it’s the truth.

Because if they keep Revis, he’ll be a distraction all year. Then he’ll take off next year to a rival and Jets end up with absolutely nothing.

Yeah I agree that Revis is worth more than the Bucs are offering. But what choice do the Jets have? There is no other team bidding.

I do feel confident, however, that the Jets will do something utterly stupid.

My wife thinks it has something to do with Mercury transiting through Scorpio or something like that. I think it’s more about mercury in the New Jersey drinking water.

Plus Revis wants that last big payday save the money and fill other holes, like backup qb, tight end with speed, pass rusher & kickoff returner to name a few!

They just remained cheap longer than needed and were tricked into thinking they could remain cheap and build young a few years ago (3-13 proved them SO, SO WRONG).

They’ve had money to spend in terms of cap space for the last decade. They had cap space left over after last years spending spree.

As to Revis specifically, assuming he’s healthy (that’s one big-ass IF), he’s absolutely worth it. We’ve now got two absolutely bad-ass safeties to cover or assist on the deep coverage (speed receivers), Revis eliminates the best receiver with coverage. He approaches the game like a QB, studying film of all the recent games of all the receivers, learning their speed, tendencies and “tells”.

Everybody is saying things like “Goldson can’t cover” and/or “Revis isn’t that fast”. Revis needs to COVER (knock down balls, prevent receptions) and the safeties need to provide deep cover and INTERCEPTIONS. The personelle being added are EXACTLY what the Bucs need/want.

This is not the Eagles adding a bunch of players with near-random skill sets that don’t fit together in a scheme that doesn’t exist. The Bucs have a scheme and they’re filling it with the correct talent (which they didn’t have last year).

We could have Deion in his prime, Revis, Ed Reed and J Lynch back there and with no improvement up front those guys wouldn’t be able to stop Breeze or Ryan from throwing all over us!

If the trade offer and future pick(s) are contingent on Revis being able to play in 2013 at a certain amount/level……?

This is more complicated and may take a bit of time to decide. What is the hurry for Jets? Big move. Big Deal.

Revis-Three time All Pro, Defensive Player of the Year, ranked 5th best player by nfl network poll, shut down corner,etc. He’s certainly no Harvin. Who was a pro bowler ONCE, as a returner.
