49ers interested in trading for Revis (link provided)

No disrespect, but he's not coming here, please stop. It doesn't make sense from a fiscal standpoint. Fat chance Revis "settles" for what he made on his last contract. I don't care about the ACL, or the limited options in terms of trade, he still is Darrelle Revis, the best CB in the game, an elite player at the HIGHEST paid position after QB. He has always been about the $$$ - he held out as a rookie before signing a contract ABOVE his draft slot, then held out again 2 years later.

Here's another idea - how about everyone stop worrying about "big hitters" and worry more about "great in coverage"?

I could see Denver being it as well.

My reasoning behind my gut feeling it's us is

A) The fact we're going after Sean Smith so hard tells me that we're not just after a CB but a CB with some impact

B) If the Jets are waiting for the Bucs to magically increase their offer they won't because whose going to outbid themselves. So unless the Jets are stupid which may easily be the case it seems logically to go ahead and start hammering the deal out with the Bucs unless you feel their is another viable player in the game.

C) So far as we know Denver and Atlanta haven't shown major interest in the top of the FA CB crop and I've only heard of Denver being interested in DRC.

D) Seems like we have always tried to keep our interest and movements as quite as possible

With all that said if Denver or Atlanta were the mystery team I would think they would be in the thick of things for Revis right now since there really isn't anything to wait for. We're the only team that we know of that's heavily pursuing one of the big fish in the FA CB market so we have a reason to put any Revis talks on hold and the Jets have a reason to take a wait and see approach.

Of course I could be completely wrong and the mystery team is complete nonsense in attempt to get the Bucs to budge from their offer.

Denver has been one of the main teams linked in rumors with Revis from the get-go, not sure where you got the bolded part from.

LOL...this.

Sounds like you don't understand leverage my man. For one, what I proposed was a scenario. It was not stated as fact.

Two, I'm well aware of who he is. I'm also aware that no team is going give ANY player coming off a major injury $16 mil a year. Not even Darrelle Revis.

There's a reason why he hasn't been traded yet. Use your brain.

That would show some awful desperation on the Jets part, trading Revis so he can own their s**tty quarterback twice a year? Painful.

I agree I think 49ers can offer a better deal if they please but the Jets holding their ground they say

If that deal happens, the Jets GM is going to get absolutely destroyed by their fanbase. That'd be like trading Patrick Willis or Justin Smith to the Seahawks.
