I'm approaching it from the standpoint that no one will pay him $16m/per. If that team exists, my proposal has a few holes. Going to be interesting to see it play out.
Revis Island to be annexed to Foxboro?

fwiw Francesa just said he's heard that Revis will go not go to Oakland (doesn't want to go there) and most likely landing spot is Pats.

Doesn't make a ton of sense. Then again Whitner and Dansby just signed there too.
Throughout this all I can think about is this video:

Rapid Fire, first word that comes to mind.
Belichick
Revis "Jerk"
Hopefully he still doesn't feel that way.

RT @KMart_LI: League source tells me Darrelle Revis would "love" to play for Rex Ryan and the #Jets.

Francesa says Revis interested in Cleveland, Jets, Iggles, Pats--proximity to Aliquippa? Only the Pats are contenders.
The Patriots don't have a fifth round pick this year (Sopoaga trade). Will next year's suffice?
Part of me feels cynical about la Canfora's tweet. Sure you can have Revis. It will only cost you the one thing you don't have this year.
I was half asleep, but had ESPN on. Did anybody else hear Clayton say that Revis was visiting New England tomorrow?

I don't think that is possible given the fact that he would still be under contact by another team tomorrow.
They really need to trade for Revis now and sign another pass rusher (ie. Jared Allen) to remain competitive with Denver and their recent and planned moves (ie. Talib, Ward, Ware) over the next couple of years. The defense needs to be a priority. Other holes (ie. OL, 2nd TE, DL, Safety) can be filled in the draft. Wilfork should be restructured.
Only thing he could do is negotiate a restructure contingent upon trade if that's even allowed. Similar to the 72 hour window in MLB.Dogman2 said:

I haven't read anything that says that have or will. Do you have a link?
I heard it, too. Casually threw it in there when mentioning the Bucs as his most improved team. When talking about Verner as a Revis replacement, he said "who by the way is visiting New England and if he doesn't get a trade there, he's going to be cut" or something along those lines.RedOctober3829 said:

Thanks I thought I heard that. Surprised that its not getting more play.CyYoungSchilling said:

Missed that -- thanks for mentioning it here. So far no mention of it anywhere in the usual outlets.
With Talib going to Denver, shouldn't the pats actually prefer a trade for revis vs signing him as a free agent, because they'd likely get a 4th round compensatory pick for Talib next year which they'd forfit if they sign revis as a free agent? So give up a 6th now for a 4th next year....maybe I'm thinking of it wrong.
It's Ben, you clod.Mystic Merlin said:
And as an aside, let me be the first to say that "Get it done, Ben" is awesome for two reasons -- one, because it's hilarious out of context and secondly because it's an awesome reminder that that actually happened last year.
Carry on...

All we know right now is that none of the 32 teams is willing to pay him $16M per season. Anything beyond that is just guessing.
If he gets released he gets a good chunk of bonus money from Tampa, correct? Plus whatever his new contract is. So he'll be making a lot more money than what the Patriots would be paying him if they were to sign him as a FAboca said:
If Talib gets $26 million guaranteed, what can Revis get?
I understand that you can play with $$$ for cap purposes, IMO Revis to Foxboro seems unlikely.
IMO BB might want Revis but settle for the other former Jets CB, Cromartie.

You, sir, are a bravo soul. I turned on NFLAM and was subjected to a loo-boo-hoo Tuck Rule story with clips from Lincoln Kennedy and Rich Gannon. And then a segment on "Broncos Doin' Work." I lasted all of 6 minutes.
The best fit for Revis, unfortunately, is the team that pays him the most money. Maybe the Pats will do it, but that remains to be seen, and there are a handful of teams out there with more money to spend. I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Irsay lights up a bong this afternoon and offers up his 4th to take the contract as is. They've got the money, even after their two big signings.
