Mr. Make-Believe Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Sounds like Mack doesn't want to be here though. Yeah, I know... Flying fuck. Revis would be great, but I'm having some trouble forging positivity for this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gftChris Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 They'll trade for Mack and then, what - his contract is up in about 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEinCHI Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( 11m and 4 years are guesses) 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBrowns! Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Mack doesn't want to be here (my opinion). His agent is trying to produce a deal that the browns can't match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoorta Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 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. Mack for Revis straight up is reasonable- throwing in picks on top of it? Bite me. They both would have to restructure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Make-Believe Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Word is we're signing Whitner. First I've heard of Hitner. I guess I have to be like everyone else and just be patient. Whitner would help temper my disappointment though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLEinCHI Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 NOTSCCleveland @NOTSCCleveland 35s Per source, IF Browns trade for Revis, they could send Alex Mack to TB in the deal. Basic swap of salaries after restructure w/Revis. that would be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beare Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 LOVE to have him but not at 15-16 mill. ALSO theres no way we trade a 1st rd pick for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beare Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Profootballtalk reports Darrelle Revis is unwilling to take a pay cut to facilitate a trade. It's hardly a surprise. Revis' best card is to refuse any and all requests to take a pay cut, forcing his release. He'd then be free to pick his own team, and get some guarantees beyond 2014. Even the Browns would reportedly insist on a pay cut in any potential trade. It's unclear what the Raiders' stance is. The Raiders have the cap room to absorb Revis' $16 million salary. I highly doubt browns will go after him after reading this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone wants the next Manning etc. My point is that Revis' best days may be behind him. You want to throw 10 mil a year for a guy who is on the downslope? I'd rather take shots getting young talent. Adding a veteran to an already established team is one thing. You can't rebuild with also-rans. Hey while we're at it, we can lock up Chris Johnson and Steve Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbedward Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 A Revis/Witner Safety Duo would surely put the dome back on the Defense, right? I disagree with putting him at safety. Gipson is pretty decent, and we need a #2 corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownSouthKC Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Revis has $0 guaranteed ... Not 1 dime. If we got him and he didn't work out you cut him and are not burnt out of some odd million dollars. I'm not hundred it happens but if it did I'd be throught the roof.

DownSouthKC Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Screw Revis. Davis signing just put the CB market thru the roofIf that's the case then why wouldn't you trade for a player that is signed through 2019, $0 guaranteed, and signed before 2 corners upped the market? He's the best and gets paid like it. Verner and the like are going to be getting paid too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
