Great move by them.

[arkana04]

Does the deal tampa did for revis go down as one of the worst in NFL history? 

[Dustin]

I'm suprised he would agree to that.

[MTC]

Pretty good deal. Surprised it was only for one year. Wonder why.. 

[BlueCollarColts]

Well... Good backup plan for Talib

[corgi]

Good job NE. I like that move a lot. Maybe Bill and co. want to make sure they won't be held at gun point by Revis next offseason. Or maybe the think Peyton retires after next year.

[Junior]

Great move by the Patriots, this time next year they can slap the franchise tag on him for around 9.8 mil I believe.

[runthepost]

Well upgrade for them

[Gabriel Alexander Morillo]

Damn. Genius move

Funny seeing tweets saying that Patriots are Super Bowl contenders after this signing. 

 

lol

[markabrown96]

Well that was quick

[PrincetonTiger]

Nice move by NE

[Jules]

Wow is all I can say......

 

lol

[Colts_Fan12]

Why would he take only a year he could have got way more from someone else

Pats were the best team out of the Jets, Browns, Raiders, etc... 

[MTC]

This is a bit of a rant against cocky patriots fans who sent me multiple texts and tweets to me. 

 

Your team spent all of your cap money on one player. Sure, Revis is an elite player but he only covers one receiver. Your team could of used that $12 million to improve half of your roster. Patriots run defense is still bad and have a lot of issues offensively. 

 

 

 

[BOTT]

Damn. Genius move

What is genius about it? Great player and they had a big need at the position.

[Drewbacca]

Wow.

He sure made it seem like all he cared about was money. Man this free agency has sucked two of the teams I hate hit the 2 top FAs

That would be the best way to handle it for awhile lol... I don't think he really earned his money last year and the year before he's also been injured in the past.  I would do that because it just seems that he is that type of player, once he gets paid he doesn't try as hard

Prolly just said goodbye to Edelman

[ColtsLegacy]

My face when I heard the news.

[Gavin]

Damn good move

 

NE: Ok Denver Ill see your Talib and Ill raise you a Revis!

 

Denver:

[MTC]

Prolly just said goodbye to Edelman

 

They only have 3 million in cap.

Goodbye Wilfork, Edelman, and other players.

I admit I didn't think he'd get near $14 mil..but he did..

 

.....if he's healthy....they'll dominate that division again

Conflicting reports!!!!

Good I hope they suck this year

[Draztik]

Conflicting indeed

[21isSuperman]

I would love to see the look on some Jets fans right now

[MTC]

Jets forums are quite entertaining. I must say.

!st of all his agent would never be that stupid. There would be an agreement that he couldn't be franchised in 2015. Secondly , he would get $14,400,000 next year if he were franchised.

Zo weighs in RT @scottzolak: @RapSheet my source, Revis to Pats….DONE ! #cake

Crap. Nice move by NE. And they got him a a bargain.

[chad72]

Outstanding move for Patriots!!! Allows them to play same kind of coverage in back 5 and bring along their LBs in pass rush. They do need Edelman.

 

If not Edelman, don't count out the Pats going after Steve Smith, a man scorned . That dude is the tallest 5'9" WR I have ever seen, with the way he fights for the ball, Steve Smith I meant.

[Fx Stryker]

Crap. Nice move by NE. And they got him a a bargain.

Lollll, what?

Plus the Pats have like $2M in cap space now.

I know right guess I don't see how this is a "great" move lol
