aec4 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Per PFT on twitter. @ProFootballTalk: Buccaneers are actively shopping CB Darrelle Revis. First reported by @alexmarvez. Confirmed by PFT. I'd explore this before Veldner or however you spell it. I mean I'd see if he's going to be cut or if he'll take 12 a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastineau Lives Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/4155/darrelle-revis FOX Sports' Alex Marvez reports the Bucs are "stepping up [their] efforts" to trade Darrelle Revis. If GM Jason Licht wants to deal Revis, he'd likely prefer to do so ahead of Thursday when Revis is due a $1.5 million roster bonus. Tampa Bay could save $16 million against the cap by trading Revis. We've officially entered crazy season in the NFL, with free agency set to kick off Tuesday, so we can't believe everything we hear. But this isn't the first time it's been reported that the Bucs are trying to trade their best player. ESPN's Adam Caplan mentions free agent CB Alterraun Verner as a potential Revis replacement in Tampa Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 HA!!! I wonder if the Bucs will get more than we did due to him having a year back from the surgery. What day does it become official that we get the 3rd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Unless the Broncos want to go all in for the remainder of Peyton's tenure, Revis is practically untradable. I just can't see the Bucs admitting they gave up a 1st and 4th for the right to pay Revis $16 million to work his way back to form throughout the course of the season. That's a tough sell. Edit: Well F*ck me. Schefty is now reporting it. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Bucs will release Darrelle Revis by 4 PM ET Wednesday if they can't find a trade partner. The Tampa Bay Times has confirmed the report. Tampa Bay isn't going to pay Revis his astronomical $16 million salary, even if he is arguably the best corner in the game. None of the money in Revis' contract is guaranteed, so the Bucs will clear a boat load of cap room by moving on from him. Revis will have no shortage of suitors once he hits the open market. We don't expect a trade at this point.Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter Mar 10 - 9:14 PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The laughs only grow louder by the day at those fools who trashed Idzik for this trade last year. For a guy who would have been set to be a UFA tomorrow, the Bucs make a big trade and then gave him a massive raise on a new deal, only to already want him gone by the same time his old, cheaper deal would have run out.

Matt39 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Adam Schefter@AdamSchefterShort of a trade in the next two days, the Buccaneers are expected to release CB Darrelle Revis by 4 p.m. Wednesday, per league sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Just sign with the Pats already and end this....we all know it's destined to happen In what world would the Pats pay Revis anywhere close to the money he'd be asking for? Even if no team is willing to pay him that ridiculous $16 million / year, I can't imagine the Pats going anywhere near the level of the top bids Revis would still be sure to draw in.

OH my. Jets are flush with money. Wouldn't it be a riot if Revis winds up back on the Jets, plus a 1st and 4th rounder.

Jettington Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I wouldn't mind the Patriots signing Revis, that's less money for them to spend on receivers. Sign Revis and let Brady keep throwing to no names. Even if Revis signs in New England for like 9 million, that's a lot of money that could be spent elsewhere.

Arsis Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 11.5 over 4 is what he'll. Maybe a few mill more on the back end. Something like 11.5,12,12.5,15 with him being cut instead of getting the 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Wow. 1 and a 4 for 16M and a losing season. Wasn't just a losing season, it was a gut the leadership and start from scratch debacle. If the whole organization gets on its knees for 1 player, and that player consistently asks for more, the rest of the players - no matter how much "football stuff" they have in their makeup - will become detached from the organization, its leadership and coaches. Rex lost the Jets in Revis's last 2 years here, and Schiano lost the Bucs in his 1 year there. 3 straight seasons of the coach losing the team, while Revis collects. I don't care what kind of teammate he is, or he's reported about being, at the end of the day I have to imagine his presence and the way he holds a team hostage - while being fawned all over by the GM/Coach - has an impact on the rest of the team.

Don't know where his value is, but I'll bet it's not close to $16,000,000 Can't remember who said it, but I was talking to T0m the other day and he mentioned that some in the NFL believe his value in this market would be $11-$12 million per, which isn't terribly unreasonable, but almost makes you laugh at the Bucs paying $16 when the cap was even worse. Idzik absolutely fleeced them. If he ever came back, that would be one of the biggest robberies in recent memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
