Jets might want to trade Revis

If you've picked up on anything about Gettleman you would see that there is literally no chance for this to happen even before taking our current cap situation into consideration. Revis is great but his NY Jets mentality and yearly holdouts would not fly with Gettleman or Richardson.

A 2nd round pick for a one year rental is bad enough but then factor in...

He's coming off a major injury and will most likely be a bit rusty the first part of the season.

Coming off 6-10 and 7-9 seasons we're not exactly poised to make a championship run.

There's very little chance we resign him after 2013.

No thanks.

We need to be looking for guys that are steals in free agency, that we can sign for much cheaper than they are actually worth. Not giving up high draft picks for a one year rental and then having to pay out a mega-deal to keep him.

It'd be a tough call for me, but we could cut Gamble and save somewhere in the neighborhood of $8 or 9 mil (I forget which) and trade for Revis who's making $6mil this year. Upgrade and savings at the same time.

It's $8M and we are $16M over the cap. We need to cut Gamble, Edwards and Nakamura AND do something with Beason and Gross (cut or restructure) just to get to the salary cap.

Then if you are going to sign Revis you need $6M+ more.

When you hear a "willing to trade" report on a big name, it's quite often followed by a "didn't really mean it" sort of statement from the team within a day or so. Those sorts of things are coing out of New York now.

Florio seriously doubts Rex Ryan wants to part with Revis.

This thread is retarded, because other NFL teams are retarded.

Carolina would never make a move for Revis precisely because some idiot other team out there will easily offer him huge money for a multi-year contract. Even considering his injuries and everything else.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
