This could take a while... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/03/05/teams-that-want-revis-have-narrow-window-to-pry-him-from-bucs/related/
Pretty simple...step the f**k up with a big offer or step the f**k on.
They are only interested because they think they can get him for cheap from the Cover 2 team.This trade ain't happening.

If that is in fact the case then they need to just keep stepping. Maybe they also think they can take advantage of a rookie GM, but our guy seems to know what's up. Revis isnt saying anything (unlike last year this time) so that makes me think the team has told him he will be here barring an offer too good to pass up.
Teams become contenders when they have great players and great coaching. Winning football games in the NFL requires highly talented players, some of whom cost a lot.
Winning Championships require quality players in multiple positions...having only one really good player with C+ and D grade players is a receipe for failure...Besides, paying one guy on your team almost $25,000 per play isn't going to cut it...
Remember that the contract was drawn up before Revis stepped on the practice field with that reconstructed ACL. Too team-friendly?

They are going to ask him to restructure his deal....he will say no...The Bucs will dance with the highest bidder and trade him, keep the 3rd round pick, pick up additonal picks this year and next year...And sign a quality Free Agent DB...That's the plan....they know having such a high priced player on the team that won't get you to the SB is a waste of cap space...The Bucs are 2 to 3 year away from contending for the NFC championship.... so why waste the money?

Why exactly would they ask him to restructure? If its too much, its too much.
Why get rid of him when we could do the same sort of restructure? (Conversion)
If you can trade rape someone, then you trade Revis.If you can't, then you hang onto him and leave his contract alone. His $ amount isn't preventing us from making moves.

I know...thats the catch...it would be foolish not to ask him to restructure his deal and they will approach him with a number that they know he will refuse...Both sides will win on this deal...Reavis will get to play for a contender and the Bucs can grab some players and draft picks....Reavis's agent and the Bucs have probably talked it over and come to an agreement ...it's practically a done deal...Bucs are doing a tap dance right now to keep the Maddenites in Tampa happy...He is gone...and wherever (Pats or Broncos) he goes he will be happy...

Quite the statement. Noted.
ICYMI ... Revis can't refuse a restructure of his current contract. It's already written to give the team that discretion...

Sorry...in my opinion...that's the plan...
