Should the Jets trade star cornerback Darrelle Revis? (Jim McIsaac/Getty Images) As another offseason approaches, so does another contract dispute between Darrelle Revis and the New York Jets. The two sides can never seem to come to an agreement without a long, drawn out battle, that is why the Jets might be looking to ship Revis out the door.  Revis is by far the best cornerback in the league and without him the Jets will surely take a hit, but in the bigger scheme of things does it make sense? Revis is coming off ACL surgery and has two years left on his contract, but the Jets are not allowed to franchise him (due to a clause in his contract). If he goes into the last year of his contract he will most certainly test free agency. Once he hits the open market, Revis will most likely be leaving the Tri-State area for good and possibly to a AFC East rival; like the Miami Dolphins or New England Patriots.

New York Jets – Smith Exited Hastened Tannenbaum’s Downfall

Mike Tannenbaum told both WFAN and ESPN radio on Tuesday, that the idea of acquiring Tim Tebow was his and a move that was borne out of the need to replace Brad Smith.

Report: Jets don’t believe they have the money to re-sign Dustin Keller

According to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, the New York Jets don’t  believe they have the money to re-sign tight end Dustin Keller this offseason.

Mark Schlereth and Hannah Storm doubt Tim Tebow’s future in ESPN gaffe (VIDEO)

I’m not sure if you have noticed ESPN’s insatiable crush on New York Jets special teams contributor Tim Tebow.  They have turned back the heat and stopped reporting when he sneezes and farts, but if he hocks a big enough loogie, they’ll break into regularly-scheduled programming.  During their Super Bowl over-analyzation Tuesday, the ESPN couldn’t help themselves from talkin’...

Former Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum takes fall for Tim Tebow trade

From the time it became obvious that Tim Tebow was not going to be a fit with the New York Jets, the media and fans have been looking for someone to blame. It seems fairly obvious that trading for Tebow wasn’t Rex Ryan’s idea, otherwise you would assume he would have given him a shot at some point during the course of the season. Last week, a report indicated the trade was ...
