#27TheDominator Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Even if he might just be the GOAT at his position? We're forgetting that CB's can be effective for a long time. Just look at Charles Woodson. I'm also holding out hope that Revis wants championships and won't necearilly make the Jets totally break the bank. It may be a pipe dream, but then again, players LOVE playing for Rex, and that might play a role in how much we have to pay them to stay. Rest assured Revis will get PAID. But I think he'll want to make sure its us that pays him and keeps him here. It all boils down to value. You have to rate what the guy can do against what you can get to replace him and what you can do with the money saved. I'm not advocating letting Revis walk. I'm saying that if you can't lock him up reasonably you use all the tools you can (franchise tag, etc) to hang on as long as you can and you do what is best for the team. The GOAT at his position doesn't always win the super bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 The GOAT at his position doesn't always win the super bowl. He does in Rex's system, since he's really what makes it tick. Jerry Rice won 4 of 'em. I'd let Mangold, Harris and both Braylon and Santonio go before I'd let Revis go on the open market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a break with he'll always win in Rex's system. Marino was possibly the GOAT at the most important position and he never won ****. As for who you let go on the open market you may be 100% right, that's something you decide as your hand is forced on the contracts. Hopefully it won't be an issue.

We went to the AFC Title Game too, mainly thanks to Revis shutting down Ocho Cinco, several different SD receivers and a big pick he had in that game. The main reason we were 9-7 was Mark Sanchez's 20 interceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Jet Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I know this may sound a bit paranoid but I am getting nervous thinking about how the heck we are going to pay for all our upcoming FA's. So something crossed my mind and I need reassurance that I am not crazy. We all just assume that Wilson was drafted to replace Cro eventually, but what if Wilson was drafted to replace Revis becuase of the insane contract he will demand? This is not possible right? ANYTHING is possible. The NFL is a business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Revis is the only upcoming UFA that I'm sure the Jets will resign. You'd like to think so. He's , IMHO, the one irreplaceable part in the D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vudu Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Revis is a franchise player, and the best @ his position in the entire NFL. No way we get rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoicsentry Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 In a way I think Revis is more the face of this franchise than Sanchez may ever be. Understandably so, in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 To all of those acting like it would be crazy... Think back... Vilma Abe Rhodes None were as good as Revis but all were top guys in the D and were traded... eC ... please don't put Vilma and Abraham in the same category as that vaginal sh1tbag ...

jetophile Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I don't want to hear the words "Revis" and "replace" in the same sentence again until I am listening to WFAN.... in my flying car. I will electronically throw monkey poo in the face of the next dope to mention the words "Revis" and "replace" in the same sentence. Who needs monkey poo when I've got my trusty cymbals? That's actually a really old avatar of mine - and I loved it, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Revis is in the 4th year of his rookie deal and the Jets can still buy back years 5 (2011) and 6 (2012) if they so choose to do so. In those two years I believe he would make somewhere around $13 and $15 million, which is what he's going to get per year in a long term deal anyways. For at least 3 more years, Revis is a JET.

bitonti Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 ANYTHING is possible. The NFL is a business. its funny... this time last year everyone thought Leon Washington would be a Jet for life.... or at least the next few seasons. Things can change quickly. no one really _wants_ revis to be replaced by Kyle Wilson... but it's nice to have options. People do get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Check out some of the contracts of other top CBs...Aso...Bailey (7 years 63 million back 7 years ago)...Clements got a nice one when he hit FA...Do you think the team can sign Revis to one of those and keep the many other important guys we have to keep (specifically the LT and C combo)? It's a legit issue IMO...just one that we don't know anything about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 You mean like when he held out as a rookie? He signed and played didnt he? Besides, he's playing for Rex now, and wants a championship. I'm not saying he won't get paid bigtime, but I am saying he won't get paid like he would on the open market, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he doesn't care about money and is going to give the Jets a Rex Ryan discount. I don't know about you, but I assume the kid was a Steelers fan growing up.

I don't know about you, but I assume the kid was a Steelers fan growing up. That may be. But c'mon, Pittsburgh's top offer for Revis would be a backloaded contract that averaged $3.5M per season with a $1M signing bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, if he grew up in DC we probably wouldn't be assuming that he was a 'skins fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gang_green03 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Of course they'll resign him barring anything ridiculous like an injury or severe dropoff in play. Teams don't just let their best players go. How many times has a CB of his caliber and age become an UFA? Potentially they could consider trading him I guess if Wilson turned into an all-pro Cromartie reached his potential but those are highly unlikely scenarios. Of all the players coming up the one I'm most concerned about losing is Harris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
