Bizarre clause lol.

I didn't realize how good he was again this season either. Maybe the Colts will sign him and finally dump themselves of Bobby Sanders terrible contract. Though it will still not be enough to sign a free agent, cause it never is.

Every team could use him. Jets don't need him, but every team would want him

As a Oakland fan, this makes me sick. No one really has any idea of how good he really his unless you follow Oakland or an AFC West team. His stats are so sub-par because no one ever throws it to his side of the field. Revis is probably a better overall player than Nnamdi but Nnamdi is the closest thing to a lockdown CB in the league.

Being an Oakland fan sucks. You have a pretty good year and go 8-8 (easily could have been 10-6) and go 6-0 in the division...a vast improvement from year's past...then Al fuckin' Davis fires Cable, who was actually doing a great job IMO. Now they aren't bringing Nnamdi back and word is they're going to let Michael Bush walk as well. Next year Oakland will be back to complete suckage.

Maybe the Bengals could try and sign him. Could always use a better corner.

This guy says Packers or Jets. Revis and Nnamdi joked that they would both take pay cuts to play on the same team. Hold them to their word, Tanny! :)

While he'd help the Jets for the simple reason he's one of the two best CB's in the league, it seems illogical. Even if he takes a pay cut, I think their money would be more effective spent elsewhere.

The Packers are a logical choice. Though he's still good, Woodson is getting older and could benefit from not having to cover the other team's best guy every week, or even moving to safety.

I agree with that. A player like him going on the market...everyone's head is turned. I know as a Steelers fan, I immediately started thinking about how super-awesome-cool it'd be to sign him. Doubt it'll happen, but I like to dream.

Pittsburgh should try hard to get him.Finally getting a shutdown corner would be great for a defense that lacks great cb.

In Peter Kings MMQB he said you can expect everyone to go after him but the cowboys, bears, and redskins. He eliminated them because he thinks any new CBA agreement would include a salary cap and those teams are just to high in payroll. He also said there are rumors there might not be free agency because the cba agreement might only happen like 4-5 days b4 the season begins and players who were supposed to be free agents would recieve a special bonus for staying with their teams. He also said the was unlikly because agents would be mad because the CBA prevented players like Vincent Jackson from free agency this year.

Revis, the same guy who held out to get Asomugha money? Pretty ironic.
