Jets reject Darrelle Revis' latest offer

The Jets and Darrelle Revis' agents have issued a joint statement saying that they'll continue to negotiate in private.

"Both parties have had conversations to clear the air and will continue to negotiate with the hopes of reaching an agreement. From this point forward, all discussions regarding these negotiations will remain confidential," read the statement. No real news here, but at least the two sides are working together on the PR side of things.

"Wats goin on in tis thread guyz?"

Revis is great but a CB is not worth that much... and the longer he holds out only degrades the Jets' need of him.

The Jets happened to draft a very good rookie CB in the first round.

I was bored and decided to watch the Marino fake spike on Youtube the other day - the SportsCenter clip was 9 minutes and 40 seconds long. Pure highlights. I felt like I actually watched the game.

Now, SportsCenter shows one highlight and then has talking heads come on and take controversial views on the soup du jour for 75% of their programming. That is the problem.

I understand the Jets balking at Revis' demands. I believe the franchise tag for CB is around $10 million - but OAK had already franchised Nnamdi - so instead of averaging the top few CBs, it was the average of the top paid players in the league (doesn't this happen if you have been franchised 2-3 consecutive years)?

So OAK was over-paying due to having to franchise tag him every year, not necessarily market value. Revis still has years on his contract so his leverage isn't nearly what Nnamdi had.

Which is why Revis is holding out, the way he may see it, why should he spend 3yrs working for less then 2 yrs as a franchise tag THEN be the highest paid Cb?

"Oh don't worry Darrelle, 5 yrs from now we'll pay you the top number"?

Leon Washington's broken leg, then trade was a wake up call for the young veterans on the team.

exactly Woody Johnson is saying just because Oakland was put in a bind and had to pay him that money (because double tagging him would have lead to the 16Milly figure) doesnt mean he will...that isnt market value for that position, 9-12 million is, with 12 being almost too much...I hate the Jets, but good for Johnson standing his good, and he is wise to do so because they have alot of big money FA coming up that are watching this transpire...

I understand Revis holding out - just think he has WAY less leverage. He held out for the contract he got. Isn't exactly making pennies and has multiple years left. I don't see the Jets' motivation to overpay him. I can see asking for more money - but not demanding he be the highest paid in the league.

The other problem comes if the Jets do just fine without him. A lot of guys are saying that he gets great help from his safeties. If the Jets don't miss a beat then he has even less leverage.

Tim Cowlishaw (sp?) of Around the Horn tweeted that the Jets and Revis have agreed to a deal that will be announced Wednesday. He said he has a source that's never been wrong.

Guess we'll see. Schefter has already said it's bogus.

The morons at Jetnation are spraying the walls as we speak.

In Schefty we trust.

People believe he got that confused with Mangold...who supposedly is close...according to this they are farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr apart...

Citing NFL sources, Newsday's Bob Glauber reports that Darrelle Revis is "demanding" $162 million over 10 years from the Jets.

The Jets are reportedly offering as much as $122 million over 10 years. None of these figures mean much without the guaranteed money, but Revis' demands are ridiculous if true. While he's certainly outplayed his rookie contract, he still has three years left on that deal. Based on info from his own sources, Glauber isn't buying Dallas Morning News columnist Tim Cowlishaw's report that a deal is close.

Come on Darelle, we all know you want $200 million, why stop at $162? I support you.

Go for that A-Rod money.

$162 million over 10 years is a joke right? I mean, that's not a serious asking price.... is it?

Supposedly someone from the Jets confirmed the report and they are now saying Thursday it will be announced. The fact that Revis' agent hasn't said anything to deny it means it is probably true.

One of them were going to blink, and I think we all knew it would be the Jets...*******.

yeah bro, he is askling that according to multiple sources...and the kicker isnt the money...it is he hasnt budged from it?!?!?!?!?! Like okay outside of one overpaid contract that expires after next year (Nmadi's) he will be the highest paid CB at 12 million right.....he cant live with that?!?!?

The longer this goes on the better the opportunity for something that gets said that the person regrets...ie..."The Jets need me" "Revis lets be serious you get help on every play" something to that effect that seperates them even more....:knucks:

They'll cave in and sign him. It's going to happen. Then he'll get hurt and they'll have over 25% of their roster tied up in he and Sanchez.

This.

I want them to sign him to a ridiculous contract, just so it screws up their future cap and then creates a schism in the locker room, because guys have to be traded or cut just so Mevis can make his 20 mill a year. F the Jets.

Just listening to WFAN and the Jets beat reporter (I missed his name) said that Revis turned down a 10 year 122 million dollar contract.

Also said the Jet players are starting to resent him, they like the way Mangold (who was in his last year of his contract with more to lose) came to camp and never complained, while Revis (3 years left) at the OTA's complained often.

10 yr 122 million?!!!?!??!?!? good god, whata **** !

12.2m/year for 10 years

jesus christ

4 Mil a year difference over 10 years between offered vs. asking. Either he has more kids than we know about......or gold plated turkey cost more than we think.

Either way, no justice no peace Revis....attica, attica, attica.....do it for the little folks Darrelle...do it for the little folks. Aiighht!

maybe since Gilbert is his uncle and Gilbert played with favre maybe he wants so much money bc he made a deal with favre to come back. he probally figures that if Favre comes back his intercertion total will rise after farcve throw picks to him. It wont look set up bc favre is going to throw 20 intys this year and Revis wil get his 3 that game
