I won't worry about it until somethng happens, the jets knew what was coming after the deal 2 years ago so I wou;d guess they have planned for this but we'll see.
That's obviously objective one at the deal last time. Anybody that doesn't understand this fundamentally misunderstands the whole way that Tanny does business. He's not going to make a significant move on any major contract without considering at the very least the short term implications of the move. He feels protected at this point for sure, so should you.
Great point. As amazing as Revis is, do you pay a guy like him more than Julius Peppers, Mario Williams type money? I think no, whereas a defensive end is pressuring every play, a guy like Revis who takes the salary's of three higher end players, just cannot be paid that much. It crushes the teams cap number.
Revis is the best defensive player in the league and while mario is good he's not even in the conversation and nowhere near as good a pass rusher as Peppers was. The market has been set for corners, he'll get a new deal at some point again making him the highest paid corner, I don't think he'll approach a Peppers/mario type of deal even though he is the best defensive player in the game.
Even if that was true all the opposing team needs to do is throw the ball to the TEs or to the other side of the field to completely neutralize him. If that wasn't the case the Jets would be 16-0 instead of 8-8. In the big scheme of things he just isn't that important.
He knows they've had a million off the field problems since last year so being the team leader he is, he just adds to it... It's a joke.
He's the best defensive player in the NFL, w/o a pass rush he shuts down the best WRs in the game. As good as JPP is he has Osi and Tuck to also command attention. revis is by himself for the most part.
Nah, the best cover guy in the league(maybe the history of the league) isn't important especially w/ that great pass rush we have. Imagine what our D would look like w/ no pass rush and w/o a great cover corner?
Revis can do what no other CB in the league can do. Best defensive player? Maybe...certainly the most unique.
junc, if the Jets offered Revis straight up for JPP, would the Giants make that trade? Not a chance in hell.
That's a stretch...especially with Tuck and Osi already on their roster. They'd have to consider it. Revis was the best player on the field during the Jets/Giants game.
I really cannot stomach Revis,anymore. Can't take away from him what he does on the field but he is one of the most selfish players i've ever seen. The Guy's not even a leader on this team,he's more concerned with his bank account then anything else.
We are already spending 24 million dollars a year or 20% of our entire cap on fuckin cornerbacks. If he wants to hold out for more then trade him or teach him how to cover three receivers at a time so he can earn more.
You are now considering impact, not skill. Revis is the best defender in the NFL but he plays at one of the defensive positions that doesn't have as much impact as a NT, OLB, etc. Revis is better at his position than probably everyone else at their position, maybe except Janokowski and Lechler at K/P. The difference between him and the next best corner is probably bigger than the difference between someone at their position and the next best player. But a player like JPP has more impact on the game. If you were to make that trade on skill alone, Revis>JPP but if you were take into account impact on a game it changes the whole argument.
No way the Giants make that trade. A top end CB is no near as important as a top end DE. A strong pass rush also helps your secondary, big time.
So what? A strong secondary helps your pass rush. I don't think the Giants would make that trade but only because JPP is currently a cheaper option. If you take out the financial aspect of it, I think it's a deal they would seriously consider.
if it was player for player and the contracts were equal? of course they would. Imagine the Giants D w/ Osi and Tuck rushing the passer and having an elite cover corner? they would be impossible to stop.
