Dibs Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 For interest sake, assuming that the Patriots don't exercise Revis' option.....and assuming it is a 3 horse race.....the current cap space for the 3 teams(according to spotrac) are: Patriots: $17M Bills: $31M Jets: $49M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything the Pats will redo his deal so he will cost less money against their cap space and if he says no then they cut him and it becomes a 31 team race.

The Pats cap number was listed under the assumption that they don't take up the 2015 option year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh sorry, that said I don't think Revis ends up here. As I don't see Whaley throwing mad money at him.

Tyrod's Tailor Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 There is no way he signs with the Jets. The whole reason he would have come back last year was to play with Rex, who has since moved to Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I have little interest to none in Revis. I m fine with leo and drafting or trading for less expensive youth. Graham is our Vet and Gilmore is up and coming finally. Revis would be an indulgent luxury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 that would also be a major concern.Rumor also has it he hates Woody Johnson. I think we just need Kim to take him to Tempo for drinks the first day of FA. Done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Oh sorry, that said I don't think Revis ends up here. As I don't see Whaley throwing mad money at him. No probs....and I tend to agree with you. Though we don't know to what extent Rex has a man crush on Revis(which could influence things), he certainly seemed quite infatuated with the current talent on the defence. I personally think that a key factor will be how highly Whaley(and Rex) rates Gilmore. If they don't envision keeping him past his rookie contract they may chose to invest early in the CB position(Revis).....but on the flip side, if they see him as a lynchpin for the future, then Revis perhaps would not be seen as very good value for the money. I too have faith that Whaley is prudent in how he spends the cap dollars available. Edited February 3, 2015 by Dibs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maury Ballstein Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 If we can ship Mckelvin to Eagles in some sort of package for foles I would like this. Mckelvin to pats in this scenario = doom. Mck would crush us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I haven't sifted through the thread, but the source of the headline (Schefter) leads me to wonder -- outside of the obvious Rex/Revis connections is there ANY substance to this rumor?

I will say outsdie of the Marrone stuff, Shefter usually spot on with his reporting. He usually gets this stuff right. I know totally off topic, but that job is really a two horse race...Shefter and Glazer. Mort not far behind Rappaport, Clayton, La Canfora etc are just not in the same class...but i would take their jobs in a heartbeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth, I'm down w/ signing Revis if they can get creative and not hamstring efforts to upgrade the OL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Do you think he'll take less money to play here? Do you think we'll offer him the biggest contract? I'm thinking "no" on both of those questions, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
