Actually it makes a ton of sense. TB has lots of cap room space and they could take him in a trade and then just cut him. Look at as them throwing in 7 or 8 million (which is what the Jets would save) as part of the Revis deal.
So does Revis have to sign a contract before or something? Sorry, I don't really know how the technical stuff works.
Doubt they would just cut Sanchez if he were in the deal. They want someone to push Freeman and they could always cut Sanchez next year.
This assumes that Revis is interested in cheating other team just so that Jets get better. I'm sorry, but I believe that Revis is interested only on betterment of Revis.
I said sometimes ago that IMO Sanchez should at best spend this coming year on Jets sidelines holding a clipboard. Well... I was wrong. The best scenario would be if Sanchez spend next year holding a clipboard on someone else's sidelines. Won't happen though. I really don't think adding Mark to Rives trade makes any sense for either team.
that would be one of the funniest things ever in the history of the sport. it won't happen though. Idzik has a good reputation with agents and other GM's, this would destroy all of that.
let's say we were to trade Revis to TB. can he veto the trade? I saw somebody mention that he won't sign with a team he doesn't wanna play for.
if they say the only way they give up whatever offer they give us is contingent on a Revis extension all he has to say is "I'm not signing an extension, I'm testing the market" so he cant veto it but it wont help us get the best offer possible
That would be awesome, but no team is going to give up high draft picks without Revis agreeing to an extension as part of the trade.

Wouldn't they actually gain some cap space? Right now with salary and prorations Sanchez counts for about $12.9 mil against the cap, if they trade him to a team that pays his entire salary then they just have all the prorated payments hitting the cap which would be $8.9 mil, giving the Jets an extra $4 mil in cap space. Not sure on these numbers but I thought this is how it would play out. If the above is the case and right now the Jets and Bucs are stuck with the Bucs offering a 1st, 3rd and 6th for Revis (just going off the rumors of course) and the Jets wanting more then throwing Sanchez in could make sense by the Bucs basically saying they will give up the 1st, 3rd, 6th and $8 mil (Sanchez) for Revis.
