LaCanfora reporting Woody Johnson may want to trade Revis given that he is in the last year of contract and cannot be franchised in 2014.

How can you not pay Revis anything he wants? The guy can singlehandedly turn a defense into a #1 unit.

Glimore and Revis as starting CBs would be nice, but the Jets would probably  double price the asking for a trade with the Bills

Makes a lot of sense. This new GM seems pretty smart. You need to unload big contracts now, if this guy performs well he for sure hits FA next year and in all likelihood you're not highest bidder. Your team is not a threat to win anything next season. If he doesn't come back well from acl you've wasted $6 mill.  Get something now like badly needed picks and create some space maybe usef for a new qb like Smith or Flynn.

Not that they'd trade with us, but I'd give the Jest our first round pick in a heartbeat for Revis. Him and Gilmore on the corners would give Pettine a TON of options.

GO BILLS!!!

Well, nothing has happened yet. I highly doubt they trade him unless someone gives them an offer ala the Redskins last year for RGIII. Won't happen for a corner IMO

I certainly believed that.

Even if the Jets do trade him, I highly doubt they would send him to a division foe, or another team in the AFC for that matter.

This just shows how much cap trouble they have. They went for broke and it blew up in their face. Rex Ryan is going to need to do something amazing to keep his job past this year

Can't stand the guy, but I'd love to have him.  A true difference maker.

If i was GM, I'd definitely trade him.  They were 8th in defense (yds/game) last year without him.  Jets need to clear cap space, and add some major talent to that offense.  Two more draft picks would give them a ton of options on draft day.

Sounds like a deal the cowboys would jump at.   No way they trade him to the bills.  Love to have him

Ian Rapoport@RapSheet
Interesting report by @JasonLaCanfora on #Jets trying to trade Revis. I know this: Revis doesn't want it. Wants to be a Jet his whole career

I wonder if this changes after someone offers a ridiculous contract offer.

One thing I have learned watching the NFL all theses years is that any player can be Cut or Traded

The best way to negotiate for Revis is one word: Aasomwaaa (phonetic spelling because his real spelling is impossible). But when the Eagles picked him up from the Raiders we were told he would be a game changer. Not so much.

Revis won't command as much as people expect. And if he does...so be it.
