DeAngelo for Darrelle?

I'm one of, if not the BIGGEST DeAngelo homer on this site... Having said that see exhibits below:

Exhibit A- we already have two solid backs and lack corners

Exhibit B- The Jets lack a Big name solid back, and are trying to trade their star corner

Which leads me to

Exhibit C- This could be a shocker come draft day or perhaps before. The contracts would cancel each other out basically and with Darrelle's injury I'd be willing to say that it's an even trade.

Crazy yes... Possible yes and no... Does it make sense? Absolutely it does, and it takes Revis from a Divisional foe in the process.

Simple answer, no.

Reason why, we can't afford his contract even if we were able to make the trade for him and it would take a first, a third, and Williams to land Revis. On top of that, we have too many needs to throw away draft picks on him. If you want a good corner, look no further than Xavier Rhodes.

Would I want Revis, yes; if he wasn't such an asshole.

No. We don't have the cap space and I don't want the constant contract headaches that Revis brings. Seems like the guy holds out or threatens to hold out every year. Plus, they're wanting a 1st round pick and then some for him, not a RB pushing 30 with an albatross of a contract. It's a bad deal for both sides.

It's been mentioned before.. but trading Deangelo actually cost money. Don't remember the specifics but because of signing bonus and stuff like that.

Pretty sure that trading Darrelle would cost the Jets $ as well.

This possibility makes a lot of sense to me. On the flip side I could play Devil's advocate and say its a horrible idea. I'd just like to generate the discussion. It likely won't happen, but of all the trade propositions that have been mentioned in the media I haven't heard this one. (Not surprising because it involves a Panther) but at any rate, this is an obvious one for one swap.

Whoever stated that we'd have to give up more than just DeAngelo that's just crazy talk.

As for the cap situation... Give Revis DeAngelo's money. We get rid of "dead weight" as many fans put it here. We fill an actual need simultaneously. I'm just throwing it out there.

Maybe if somebody else other than me brought this up it would be received differently? Either way, it's out of the bag, and until Thursday I don't see any reason why we can't all have a healthy and respectful debate about it.

The Bucs reportedly want to trade a first, a third, and a fifth for Revis, and the Jets are supposedly trying to get more out of them.

But yeah, they'd probably rather have an old, injury prone RB for Revis straight up.

Its funny how the media always gets these Blockbuster trades wrong and the details wrong. DeAngelo isn't injury prone either, so lets keep up with the times and have valid points if we're gonna disagree.

I'm gonna laugh when he goes to Cincinnati for a 3rd rndr and conditional picks at the last second. There's always a team not in the reported mix that swoops right in for way less.

Personally if MUCH rather keep DeAngelo than get Revis. I do think its worth noting and bringing up the possibility which exists.

Crazy yes (should've stopped)... Possible yes and no... Does it make sense? Absolutely it does, and it takes Revis from a Divisional foe in the process.

This possibility makes a lot of sense to me. On the flip side I could play Devil's advocate and say its a horrible idea (still should've stopped). I'd just like to generate the discussion. It likely won't happen, but of all the trade propositions that have been mentioned in the media I haven't heard this one (I wonder why). (Not surprising because it involves a Panther) but at any rate, this is an obvious one for one swap. (Lulz)

Whoever stated that we'd have to give up more than just DeAngelo that's just crazy talk (DWill for Revis, straight up, is not crazy talk? Lulz again).

As for the cap situation... Give Revis DeAngelo's money. We get rid of "dead weight" as many fans put it here. We fill an actual need simultaneously. I'm just throwing it out there. (Shouldn't have)

Maybe if somebody else other than me brought this up (I'm sure they did, and we laughed at too) it would be received differently? Either way, it's out of the bag, and until Thursday I don't see any reason why we can't all have a healthy and respectful debate about it. (Insane OP's typically don't get respect for obvious reasons)

I'm gonna laugh when he goes to Cincinnati for a 3rd rndr (After the Bucs offer? Oh yeah, the media and people who may know something got that news wrong. But Dwill for Revis makes sense...) and conditional picks at the last second. There's always a team not in the reported mix that swoops right in for way less.

Personally if MUCH rather keep DeAngelo than get Revis (Hurney?). I do think its worth noting and bringing up the possibility which exists.

A lot more I could've done I'm sure, but you can't turn chicken poo into chicken salad.

You should have just said this:

"I don't really have anything to add to this conversation, so I'll just poke fun at TCF for the lolz and then add a really played out one liner at the end, worth at least 5 Internet brownie points"

When anybody wants to have a legitimate discussion about it PM me. I'm beyond tired of the immature back and forths on this site. Just want to talk about football and possible moves.

      Didn't know where to post this but it is panthers relevant since eventually we'll have a couple wr in Coker and tmac that will get paid. Jaxon Smith-njigba just signed a 4 year $168.6 million contract extension that now makes him the highest paid wr in nfl history. For now

      Would be happy with Lomu or Iheanachor at 19. Fano is intriguing but I don't think he makes it.

      II see it this way: We have to look at long-term needs and current depth.  We have filled some key spots with players on one-year contracts.  I firmly believe that they intend to pay Bryce some big bucks next year.  That means you cannot hope that your rookies in 2027 can fill the spots vacated by the veterans you could not afford to re-sign.   We need to consider the cap and the fact that the need to start a rookie is not viewed as a positive by coaches and general managers, but they value first contracts--so it is a delicate balance. I think they have to look at the cap by position--"Can we afford a $50m QB and a $100m OL?  That is half the cap, before you pay your WRs and RBs and TEs.  They need to start getting younger on the OL as well.   I am not suggesting that we draft OT in round 1, but we could and I would get it.  RT on a 1-year deal, they may have intel about Ickey (who was not the best LT, to be honest) and 32-year old Moton is on a bad wheel.   Now if you go by Morgan's history, you can almost tell what position we are going to address with the first pick by noting the positions he has not focused on in free agency.  DT, considering the lack of performance by those not named Derrick Brown and the loss of Robinson, is screaming to be addressed with a top player.  Wharton is not an early down DT (DE if you want to get technical) and our LBs need to be clean--they were not in 2025.  Look for a DT early. I also think we will address ILB (pass covering Will) on day 2.  The other day 2 pick will be an OT, in my view. Do not rule out CB.  We are thin there too, and Jackson is in his final year.  I am not sure that we love Smith-Wade.  Some crackhead on here talked about moving him to S----stay tuned.   Hopefully, a team wanting Ty Simpson will move up and offer us a pick or two to move back. DT WILB OT OC QB  (you heard it here 337th--but this pick could come sooner than you think.
