IF and I repeat.... IF we are interested. That is what we are offering. You know it as well as I do. I highly doubt Flynn is apart of the deal. The Jets are over the cap. and already have 12+ Million invested in the position. And 7 million, and that team has 19 million in a position that doesn't have a clear starter. Their GM is a cap specialist no way he includes Flynn. It doesn't make $$$ sense.

That's a net decrease of almost $21 milliIon. I understand this number may be subject to cap penalty, but only if they don't find a trade partner for Tebow as I believe Sanchez can be cut at any time without penalty after he restructured last year (might be wrong on this).

Can Revis play Safety? This comment will prove to be somewhat controversial, but Kam has let me down a little bit of late.

Revis opposite of Sherman, move Browner to cover underneath slot/TE routes.
Championship!

The league won't let this happen. Revis and Sherman on one team, to form the almighty "Shermis Archipelago"? It'd be cheating. Too unfair to opposing teams.

http://www.thenewstribune.com/2012/04/2 ... -list.htmlI think i've made it pretty clear in MANY threads what i feel about moving players to new positions when they play at a pro-bowl or all-pro level at their current position. I think many who think otherwise have a have a cake and eat it too mentality. You like Browner and Kam, but don't want to lose them if a player that is arguably better comes along and insist that the best solution is to have them switch positions. This isn't Madden. They are not going to have the same physical attributes at the new position. New position, new skill set. You have every right to suggest it, but i have every right to counter it. This is the salary cap era. If you want to be good long term, you are going to need to mix and match what your team can excel at. As an example We choose to have big physical corners, which means we are at risk when we play a burner WR. Whenever we do, someone will suggest moving ET to CB. No, you don't. You pick and choose your poison, and do your best to limit your vulnerabilities. We have an All-Pro safety in ET. That means he's the best, at safety. A lot of players contracts are coming due, and many are due a big payday. We can't keep everyone we like.

Unless the Jets are willing to swap him for Flynn and a mid rounder I don't see it. We've got our own players who are gonna get paid soon enough so why bother giving up anything significant for a one year rental.

As much as I'd love Revis on the Hawks...if we're investing stackloads of cash and high draft picks into someone elses player could we please hassle Detroit into giving us Ndamukong Suh?

We need an elite corner less than any other team in the league. This isn't happening, people; get real.
