Why would we have to "cut" his salary for someone to take him? According to the GMs here $16 million is a steal for "the best cover CB in the league". People should be falling over themselves to grab him from us. And since he's healthier now we should have no problem grabbing two round one picks because he'd be such an important part of a team that wants to win it all.
You're right. Let's pay him $32m over the next 2 years and go 10-22.
That's more realistic than your crazy ass trade idea.

Sorry to pick at your straw man doc, but no one is discussing cutting his salary. Converting base salary into a bonus to absorb it into the Bucs cap and allow a potential trade partner to get Revis for the vet minimum (I'm assuming that's what that is) for 2 seasons. Which shouldn't be hard to understand would dramatically increase his trade value, and be pretty much the only way for the Bucs to move him and get something of value in return. I think the OP's scenarios are a bit far fetched, however, I could absolutely see a contending team giving up 2 1's.
Someone's been playing way too much Madden.
The problem is no team is going to trade for him and incur a roster bonus of $30.3 million and give up that many early picks...

Agree. Nobody is going to off us that. If they did, I would be willing to listen.

We would be the ones paying the 30.3 million
Making his 2014 and 2015 base salaries $855k. We take the cap hit in 2014 and then it's clear skies in 2015. Would you do it for Dallas' 2014 #1, #2, #3, 2015 #1 and 2016 #1?Or Denver for Osweiler, 2014 #1, #2, 2015 #1.
You really think there's ANY team out there which would give up this for a cornerback....no matter how good he is?
Wait, let me get this straight...paying 32 million for the best CB in the league is too much and overpriced....But paying 30.3 million to NOT having the best CB is sound logic???

And that is even dumber...currently Revis has no guarantees...
This thread = ???

Paying 30 million for all those draft picks essentially.

Jerry Jones would do it.
