This. Revis helped us win a Super Bowl and I'll always look upon him as a patriots hero for that. This sucks but we don't win 49 without him.drleather2001 said:We got what we needed at the right time. Oh well.

Hello Logan Ryan and Malcolm Butler, starting CB's!
I think the issue will be folded into and buried along with the League's outrage, despair, distraughtness over all those deals that were worked out before real free-agency officially started. We ain't seeing bupkes, unless you think a Sternly Worded Letter counts for anything.The tampering HAS to stick now right?
I think so. They can sweep this under the rug.tims4wins said:The tampering HAS to stick now right?

Yeah this is not good. We went from a top 2 secondary to a bottom third secondary in 24hrs.
dcmissle said:You can't connect the dots on tampering's impact. The fact is the Jets were free to deal with him after 4 o'clock today. If anything it will be a very low round pick.
Brady and Giselle are worth somewhere between $400-500 million dollars. And, has been documented elsewhere, Revis has a strong union bent and is invested in raising the tide for everyone.tims4wins said:I thought he was smarter than that to be honest. I'd have understood say Buffalo or Cleveland or KC. But to see what the Jets have gone through and still sign there? Wow. Just much different priorities than a guy like Brady, and IMO diminishes his legacy a smidgen, chasing every last dollar.

If you think we have a bottom third secondary right now then the DMC signing was the stupidest fucking thing ever because we're paying 10 million a year to one of our guys.
And you can say that about every deal illegally reached on Sat/Sun/Mon, and there were more than a few of them.PedroKsBambino said:
Nah, it's super simple to say that tampering with a guy during the exclusive window (which is undeniable given the tape of Woody and time the statements were made) irretrievably changed Revis' perception of his external market and poisoned all discussions from that moment on.
I just think the NFL is so morally bankrupt on tampering that they will simply ignore it instead. But there is not a causation problem here, just an enforcement one.
Arrington has 56 career starts, Dennard 20, Ryan 13. It's not that green a group; the problem is there's no #1 guy.j44thor said:
The secondary would be significantly worse without DMC so I don't think paying a player market value is the "stupidest fucking thing ever". But when your starting corners as presently constituted have a combined handful of starts how is that not a bottom third secondary?
I admit, they will struggle to stop the pass this weekend.j44thor said:

I bet he invites him to his house with the rest of the team. Why the hard feelings?jsinger121 said:Kraft will FedEx his super bowl ring. Don't expect him to present it when the Jets return to foxboro.
why not our beloved U.S. Postal Service First Class Mail?jsinger121 said:Kraft will FedEx his super bowl ring. Don't expect him to present it when the Jets return to foxboro.
Because he signed with the Pats biggest rival. I guarantee he ain't going.Ferm Sheller said:I bet he invites him to his house with the rest of the team. Why the hard feelings?
