I didn't watch him last year, but I suspect the slot is Revis' best chance. He might have lost a step or two of speed, but has he lost his quickness?
As long as he helps us win another Championship while he's leveraging us to polish up his image, then I'm fine with it
"Increasingly Likely" = went from 0% to 5% possibility. Isn't technically wrong.
All you guys worried about the salary, if this were to happen: remember, the Jets pay him the balance up to $6M. He'd not going to get more the $6M from anyone (I think), so there's no reason to pay him more than the League minimum.
Nobody is worried about the salary but his lazy ass performances in the last 1.5 years.
I just don't see the fit.. unless it is for very, very cheap..
If he is ready to play for veteran minimum pay...
Well he gets $6 million for sitting home paid for by Mr. Johnson, so a $1 million contract means he gets $6 million, 5 of which are paid for by the Jets....
i really hope not. I feel that money could be better spent on another corner
Playing on a vet minimum deal...
A cheap, in shape and motivated Revis would be great...
If you get him at a price where there is not much if any guaranteed money in case he needs to be cut during camp then there is no reason not to kick the tires. Can't ignore a player like him if you get him for peanuts.
For the veteran minimum and him wanting to redeem himself after last season, why not give him a shot?
Revis will cost us $1M (and the Jets $5M). Our #2/3 corner may be a by-committee approach depending on the matchup. Revis might play half the snaps and still be able to contribute just fine.
1. They would have to be convinced that the REASON Revis is playing is to reestablish his legacy in the NFL and NOT for the money. The only way I think he can do that is to play for the $6MM. In other words sign for the league minimum and let the Jets pay the rest. THAT would prove to a team he is motivated by all the right reasons.
...just to have a guy on the Roster who is being paid $5 or so million, depending on the deal, by the Jets to play for the Patriots. That would be pretty darn close to "Christmas in March" territory.
I personally don't want him here but this is a pure business decision. If BB thinks he'd be great value for a vet minimum...
I can't believe the Pats couldn't find a younger player for the same money, one with potential for development and offering the prospect of sticking long-term if all goes well.
