In the FWIW category, Revis graded out significantly better than Talib by Pro Football Focus last year.
 
Not to mention he's a year further away from his injury and on a one-year prove it type deal. 
 
Just fantastic.

Can't complain about this one. Nice move.
 
Revis must feel like Tampa's zone scheme depressed his value this year and wants another crack next offseason. Probably just a one-year rental, but a hell of a rental.

Now McCourty gets to shade to one side of the field too. Goodbye deep ball.

Any news of a handshake to not franchise him after next year?

Franchise him next year. Id gladly pay 12-13mil in a franchise tag to him. 2/25? I'm good with that.
 
I would guess Revis' camp made sure there's some kind of "no franchise tag" clause in the contract.

Did they call in Cherington for the negotiations?

Holy shit contract year Revis for just over Talib money without the years?

Y'know... he signed pretty quick... He might actually want a ring.

I was on the phone with my girlfriend when I saw the Schefter tweet and immediately made up an excuse to hang up and take it all in. Holy fucking shit, we got him. And for 12 fucking million. Genius!

I'm still stunned. Pumped.

Now get a pass rusher, a cover linebacker, a vet WR, and then a stud TE in the draft.

Oh, and Dennard, Ryan and Stanley Jean-Baptiste (or whatever CB they draft) learning from Revis in camp?
 
Yeah, I'll be calling my doctor around 1 this morning.

This is outstanding. You want no part of franchising Revis for obvious reasons. But I am very grateful for the one year.

Or, with the expanding cap and the inability to come to an agreement on a longer deal, they can keep him with the tag.

Unreal. I would now like Edelman/Peppers/Allen. Why not at this point.

Think so too. Revis is very shrewd. He has already made a ton of money and is still young. Win/win.

Won't the acquisition of Revis offset the loss of Talib?

I'm guessing there's a clause that says no franchise allowed after this year, right? Otherwise, I can't see Revis agreeing to this.
 
WOWOWOW.
