BankerBird™ Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Can we stop all the "Falcons interested in Revis" threads now?! http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000333208/article/darrelle-revis-unlikely-to-be-traded-by-buccaneers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouDog. Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 i dont think we are either but this doesnt change anything. He will soon be a FA so them not trading him doesnt matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHEC Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Can we stop all the "Falcons interested in Revis" threads now?! http://www.nfl.com/n...d-by-buccaneersUm... what makes you think Falcons wouldn't be interested in Revis still? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LookAboutFalcon Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Well you do have the power to do something about it. Just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BankerBird™ Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Um... what makes you think Falcons wouldn't be interested in Revis still?Um, his contract? Combined with our cap situation after yesterday's moves? This would be a STUPID financial decision on the part of the Falcons, and it's not how Scott Pioli operates. Dimitroff, maybe, but not Pioli!

WOR Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Ehh but he won't be a buc past today. He's available, no two ways around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngbloodz Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Trade or no trade Ian Rapport reported the Falcons called about Revis. That's Falcons news. Talk about the Atlanta Falcons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is being released and nobody is oging to pay him 16 mil so he will have to restructure.

This would be a STUPID financial decision on the part of the Falcons, and it's not how Scott Pioli operates. Dimitroff, maybe, but not Pioli!There's a way to drop his cap hit to 5.4 somehow. I'll have to look it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a STUPID financial decision on the part of the Falcons, and it's not how Scott Pioli operates. Dimitroff, maybe, but not Pioli!Ian Rapoport @RapSheet 43mIf teams want to trade for Darrelle Revis, then convert his $16M salary into a bonus, the cap number would be $5.6M this year.There's always ways around the cap and numbers, but I agree that move would come out of left field.

Keith Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 With our two young corners, why, why, why would we want to use any of our cap space for Revis?We still need some more hogs.Don't do it, Tommy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaRdH3ad Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Lol just not a trade but any team would be a fool to at least not see what's going on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTUS12 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 You know we are one of the teams that called and inquired about a trade? We will sign him as a FA. Karma coming back to us for losing Prime Time. Stay tuned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, id dont think we get him but this proves nothingSo, are you totally discounting Revis' own words - through his agent and various media outlets - that he is not going to take a pay cut? I'm just asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiccolas Cage Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 TB WILL NOT trade Revis to a team in the same division so that makes the Revis ordeal null and void. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouDog. Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 So, are you totally discounting Revis' own words - through his agent and various media outlets - that he is not going to take a pay cut? I'm just asking?read the rest of this thread. The cap hit for a team to sign him is 5.6 mil and yes i discount his own words. Its easy to say what you will and wont do until you realize that its either lower the number or sit your *** on the couch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BankerBird™ Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 you do realize that Pioli works for TD right? TD is his boss.

He will take a lower salary or retire if no team is willing to meet his demands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) you do realize that Pioli works for TD right? TD is his boss. So he has final say soI'd like to be a fly on the wall at Flowery Branch and see what the real deal is concerning the Falcons' power structure.

Hierarchy doesn't matter when it comes to not making a bonehead financial decision like signing Revis.And if TD decides he want Revis than we will go after him. Cause he is the man in charge. But nobody will pay him $16 mil a year. So no worries on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
