The Darrelle Revis No Longer Holding Out Thread

Thanks for sharing

 

i didn't mean all I meant one or two and yes 40 mill does make a diffrence. also if cromartie plays up to how hes been in training camp. He'll prolly be resigned or at least we'll try to

 

I'm off to work so I don't have time to look this one up but send me a PM to remind me and I'll look for this one. The whole justification from the owners behind cutting the 18% for players was so they can afford higher salaries.

 

$40 million over 10 years. That's $4 million/year average. Not one of those guys are going to play for $4million/year or less unless they have a season they regret.

 

im not saying they would play for that but if we're negotiating with them it might make the diffrence to have that money also that money might be broken down anyway not just 4 mill a year.

 

I made my own thread for this video, but thought id also post it here since it is Revis related.

Braylon Edwards speaks of Revis at around 2:50

"I do believe Darrelle Revis WILL play for the Jets in 2010"
Braylon says a couple of guys have spoken to Revis, and is getting ready for another year/has been working out.

 

* Let Beavis sit and settle with Mangold and Harris, the importance of those 2 far outweigh Beavis.

 

edit........

 

The problem with that line of thinking is that $12 million/year is already 20% higher than the next highest paid CB not named Nnamdi. Can we all agree the Nnamdi contract is an anomaly created by Al Davis?

Code:

Denver Broncos 		Champ Bailey 		2004 	63m 	Unknown 	7 	9
San Francisco 49ers 	Nate Clements 		2007 	80m 	22m 		8 	10m
Carolina Panthers 	Chris Gamble 		2008 	53m 	23m 		6 	8.83m

Atlanta Falcons 	Dunta Robinson 		2010 	57m 	22.5m 		6 	9.5m

New York Giants 	Corey Webster 		2008 	43.5m 	Unknown 	5 	8.7m
Seattle Seahawks 	Marcus Trufant 		2008 	50.2m 	20m 		6 	8.37m

Green Bay Packers 	Charles Woodson 	2006 	52m 	Unknown 	7 	7.42m

$16 million/year is 60% more than what the next highest CB makes. 60%!

If you pay Revis 60% more than the next highest CB you better be paying Mangold at least 20% more than the next highest center. What about Harris? Everyone is going to expect ground breaking contracts if you give a crazy one like that out. $12 MM/year long term is a very nice deal.

 

Really. It's Mevi$ or Butthead.

 

Actually on OTL yesterday the former GM of the Skins explained how ASO contract came to pass. Last year he was franchised & according to Davis would have been franchised again this year so he would have had to pay him the same money he gave him in contract & got a few additional years along the way.

 

HECK, SIGN THEM ALL. With Revis money Sign Cro, Holmes, Harris, Mangold, Edwards - Throw the money around and lock em all up...

Trade Revis in the offseason - Try for 2 1st rounders - Draft another CB and move on....

This season may be derailed but, Sanchez is still a baby - Come out next year with the CB's deeper and make a run - Send Revis to Tampa.


I'm not sure If I could face Revis or his agent after the BS they pull.

 

That doesn't mean it was smart. Also, he is paying him the franchise tag price for a QB, not a CB. The franchise tag is not meant to be a long term solution.

Al Davis doesn't have the mind he used to.

 

Nope that according to the GM that was the franchise price for a CB not a QB

 

also bailey made 13 mill last year and this article says he would have had a cap figure this year of 15.38 mill it also explains how that contract makes sense

Luckily you'll never have to

To boot, that was only a short term deal.

 

1) That Florio article is retarded.
2) You can pull out individual years of contracts all you want if you want to sound like Florio, we're talking about average per year.

I cannot believe people want to try and justify a contract that is 60% higher than any other player at that position. It's insane.

 

you're right but im just trying to see it from both sides

 

I have a feeling that both sides will ultimately agree to 10 years at $13.5 million with $40 million guaranteed, and $20 million of that fully guaranteed. Seems like that should cover both sides.
