  • Just now making its way to the national media. Instead of name calling you should be thanking me for breaking it here first.

    #Bucs are receiving interest in a Revis trade from teams with cap space. One team to watch: #Browns. Same system as Revis had with #Jets

    Ian Rapoport? Oh, now I know it's definitely going to happen. His 'inside information' always turns out to be true.

  • IF he comes the browns via trade it will be for no better than a 4th or 5th rd pick and maybe someone like brandon weeden where it makes 0 financial sense for us to cut, but it could help offset the outrageous 16m a year deal revis has ( we would need to restructure ASAP).

    This is a reach and a half and by no means something i think will happen... but the idea of revis, haden, and an improving skrine as our stable of CB's is pretty exciting.

  • I rescind some of my insults. NO we will not trade a 1st round pick for him. NO he is not worth $18-20 mil a year. BUT I guess the trade here is somewhat of a possibility. I HOPE we only give them a 3rd or 4th, and we re-structure Revis' deal b/c we can't afford to pay him $16 million this year if we want to still sign Whitner and other FAs. This would be pretty exciting if it happens

  • Giving a CB QB money is just dumb. I dont care how good he is. I love Revis as a player, but taking his ridiculous contract AND giving up valuable draft picks better not be happening.

  • The trade is being finalized. It includes a first round pick. They're trying to work out the compensation for Alex Mack; the Buccaneers want him and he wants the Buccaneers. Instead of trying to come up with a contract that the Browns won't match they're trying to go about it a more civil way.

  • Trade is happening only if Revis agrees to re-do his contract.

    Revis's contract calls for a 16 million dollar salary. No team, including the Browns is going to trade for that.

    Revis could in fact be released and become a FA...and then any team can negotiate with him....at whatever price.

    (but he won't be getting 16 mill)

    His contract includes a provision to turn his base salary into a signing bonus, which can make his 2014 cap number $6.4M. On the open market Revis would get $18-20M a year.

    Your insane, too many good corners available. Nobody would pay that

    And he would hang up on you.

    Are you his agent?

    Mack is involved now too? Makes the deal just a little less exciting.

    No way. 16.4 M maybe. If he were to only cost 6.4 then any number of bites on that fishhook would have been made.

    Sounds like Mack doesn't want to be here though.

  • I like the idea of Revis, and regardless of if there's potential truth to these rumors, I don't like it if it includes not only a 1st round pick, but also a key free agent. There's other parts to this rumor floating around, that Revis could be had for a mid to late round pick, so why on earth would they trade not only a 1st rounder, but Mack as well. It doesn't make any sense, even if the front office is trying to use "better than getting nothing for Mack" logic. Hell No.

    Yeah, I know... Flying fuck.

    Revis would be great, but I'm having some trouble forging positivity for this offseason.

  • They'll trade for Mack and then, what - his contract is up in about 4 hours.

  • browns could resign mack at a deal that the bucs want, and trade for revis with a condition that he would restructure....what would you rather have mack at 10 mil for one year and a draft pick or Revis for 11 m a year for the next 4 years? ( 11m and 4 years are guesses)

    The Browns are also going to have to resign Haden. That's a lot of money to tie up in one position. And regardless of Revis having a good year last year, he's still not that far removed from a torn ACL, and he's aging.

    I'd rather not have to take so many steps back in order to go forward.

    We lose Ward and Mack and pick up Revis? Part of me is excited. Most of me is pissed that we're no further ahead overall.

    Word is we're signing Whitner.

  • now reports are dansby and whitner coming to the browns.... our new identity... bone crushing defense

  • Mack doesn't want to be here (my opinion). His agent is trying to produce a deal that the browns can't match.

  • I like the idea of Revis, and regardless of if there's potential truth to these rumors, I don't like it if it includes not only a 1st round pick, but also a key free agent.

    Mack for Revis straight up is reasonable- throwing in picks on top of it? Bite me. They both would have to restructure.
