JohnnyHector Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Problem might be the structure of it. I don't think with the 30% rules that the Jets could do salaries that high. What they could do instead -I believe- would be to give roster bonuses every year. So it would be a $15M signing bonus, $8.5M roster bonus, and $550K in salary for the first year. A $9.25M bonus and $750K salary the next year, etc. The 30% rule is based on the player's 2009 cap number which, for Revis, was ~$7.5m. Thus, his maximum salary in 2011 would be ~$9.75m, with the possibility of annual increases of up to $2.25m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireJet38 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I say screw Revis financially to the fullest extent allowed by the rules and use the money you save from that to extend players like Mangold and Harris. If you have a bad scouting department and get lucky with a player you have to overpay him like the Raiders did with Aso. The Jets scout very well. The salary cap is the biggest thing limiting the amount of talent the Jets can accumulate. They don't have to worry about only having a good draft every few years. Take the money saved by screwing Revis and invest it the other players the scouting department found. Revis Heist died for our wins. A very uninformed view. LB and C are much easier positions to replace. SHUTDOWN CORNERS don't grow on trees. You might be lucky to find ONE in the next 10 drafts. With that said, I don't want to lose either Mangold or Harris, but one of them is going to be a casualty. IMO, Mangold's going to get a nice deal and Harris will be that cruel casualty. Rex can find a young and hungry LB to mold into a stud. Just look at what he did with Bart Scott. Keeping Mangold and Sanchez together — a la Manning and Saturday — is a very good idea. Plus, Mangold's probably the most down to earth professional athlete in the history modern sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Mangold gets a nice deal which will make him the highest paid player at the most undervalued position in the NFL and Harris will take less to stay with this team but will still be paid handsomely. Notice Harris hasn't made any noise whatsoever. He ain't going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He ain't going anywhere. That would be ideal. But I think the rest of the league might tempt him. While most fans don't know a lick about Harris, you can bet opposing GMs are salivating at the chance to have him run their defense. Still, I really hope that you are right.

I dont think the JETS are just looking at this year. Next year a boat load of guys are going to need to be signed. 1 player cannot take the entire pie whether its Revis or not sorry.

Jbro22 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Being bitchslapped through the media though more than half the media coverage I've seen agreed with him. Ima do this. Im not going to respond to your further on this subject. You obviously dont know what you're talking about, you just have your personal feeling on it. Which is cool, but when you try to make it a valid point thats when its a waste of my time to go back and forth with a person like that. Call it putting my tail between my legs....but like I said, Revis will get his money no matter what you or I say. The media that agrees with Revis is the media that isn't close to the situation. In other words out of town or national outlets that don't know or care for the details. They just throw Revis' name in a headline for traffic/hits. Then there's Mike Francesa who gets visably upset when the Jets are discussed. You'd think Rex cut him in line at the China Buffet. Francesa's been out of touch and out of line since the departure of Dog. In other words if you agree with Francesa on anything you're automatically wrong.

bitonti Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 there is no "side" that is winning by a joint statement issuing no further comments. it's not a sign that the Jets 'beat' the agents or vice versa. It's a sign that talks are actually getting serious and they might be close to getting this thing done. cause at the end of the day there is no war between woody and revis or between tanny and schwartz. Revis will be a NY Jet for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people who you believe to be in that camp agree with you that he should sign a more reasonable deal than the 10/160 he's rumored to be seeking. What us pay Revis folks want is for the Jets to come to the table and offer something concrete. 10/120 is pie in the sky without any bonus money. I'm not going to get into why that's the case again, but it is the case. And I know that Gary Myers has come out and said the Jets should pay Revis. Outside of that, I think most of them are simply trying to report facts and not take sides. They'll need to get stories from both the players and the front office in the future, and certainly don't want to burn any bridges. Don't the story on the radio. I listen to music in my car.

No need to explain anything, it's all very clear. No guaranteed money was discussed because MEvi$ would not come off the $16 mill per which the Jets see as out of the question.

People are defending Revis' right to hold out. Those in support of that stance generally see the $16M/per demands more as a negotiation position than an actual line in the sand. I don't think you have plenty of posts on here saying that Revis should be paid that number. That said, ten years from now $16M probably won't be a cap busting deal for a shut down CB. I think the Jets could get Revis in camp on the 10/120 plan if they offer some big money upfront as part of that package. The very real problem with that is if Revis has $30M in the family feeding fund, he could be a potential holdout sooner rather than later when some other great young CB signs a $17M/year deal. 10/160 is too much. A middle ground of 10/140 should be able to be accomplished with a more reasonable bonus (maybe the one year average of $14M), and some backloading to get that total compensation up. But I definitely feel that the Jets need to come to the table with some genuine bonus money if they want to get this deal done. Drawing their own line in the sand about coming to an agreement on the total package first obviously isn't going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the rest we shall see, and I have no doubt that a deal will get done if he's actually going to come off the $16/$160. If a deal ends up getting done and it ends with a 10th year at $52M (essentially making it a 9 yr contract @ $12M per) then we'll know this standoff was on Revis not the team. If everyone - Revis included - knows that the final year is phony, then the entire holdout was all about Revis's $16M per year line in the sand, Anyone else who wanted a deal done, otherwise, would have met with the team after they sent the year and contract totals. IF the Jets then were immovable on a lack of guarantees in it then that would come out. But to not even discuss it (until the Jets used Hard Knocks to make Revis look bad apparently) unless the Jets come up with a total higher than Aso says plenty. So if the only way a deal is struck is to have a bunch of meaningless money in there, that Revis will never see, then this whole thing is on Revis.
