NY JETS: WITH REVIS OUT, SHOULD THE JETS CLEAN HOUSE?

Darrelle Revis, top five defensive player in the NFL, is out for the year. Before his injury, Gang Green looked good on defense. Not great...Good. Good enough to win some games if the offense could score some points. Not a lot of points....Some. Well, now Revis is out and all bets are off...Unless....It's Tebow time! Bring the freak in and let it roll. What do you have to lose? Sanchez is the lowest rated QB in the league. His fault or not the J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS need to wake up! TEBOW OR BUST!

Start the process of trading the dead wood now. Start accumulating draft picks for next year and beyond. My colleague at NFL PRO ZACH, The Professor, suggested trading all players over the age of 28. He may be on to something. The players coming out of college now are NFL READY! There is noticable strength & speed differences in the younger teams in the NFL. The NY JETS look slow.

Here's the list:

-Calvin Pace: He's worth a 5^th or 6^th round pick. Sign Sapp from the practice squad and promote Maybin.

-Dustin Keller: He's worth a 3^rd or 4^th round pick. Sign Hayden Smith from the practice squad and promote Epps. Heck, Tebow needs a Rugby player on the field!

-Mike Devito: He's worth a 5^th or 6^th round pick. Promote Coples.

-Santonio Holmes: Eat some salary and get a 3^rd round pick from the Cowboys!

-Eric Smith: Get a 6^th.

-Bryan Thomas: trade him for complaining about being cut then resigned! Get a 6^th rounder.

-Mark Sanchez: Get a 3^rd round pick and move on. The Browns or Chiefs may take him.

Let's get this done Tanny!

NFL TRADE DEADLINE:

The National Football League's deadline is the Tuesday following the eighth week (formally sixth) of the regular season, which typically falls in mid-October. However, this was changed for the 2012 N.F.L. Season, with the deadline being moved ahead two weeks in hopes of more trade activity at the deadline. Usually, there is fairly little activity on this day and almost no star players are ever dealt to other clubs on the sixth week of the season. The early deadline, along with players having to learn a whole new system on the fly, along with the salary cap often makes it difficult to make blockbuster trades on this day, unlike most other sports. 

NY JETS: Darrelle Revis: 5th Best Player in NFL

By Rich Cimini ESPNHow good was Darrelle Revis last season? According to ProFootballFocus.com, the stats-oriented web site for hardcore fans, the Jets' All-Pro cornerback 
was the fifth-best player in the NFL. 

In case you're wondering, the top four were Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, 49ers DE Justin Smith, Saints QB Drew Brees and Lions WR Calvin Johnson. PFF released its top 101 just last week. The only other Jets on the list are DT Sione Pouha (36) and C Nick Mangold (46). 

Here are some ridiculous numbers on Revis, as compiled by PFF: 

• He allowed just 41.2 percent of all targets to be completed. 

• He led NFL with a QB rating of 45.6 on passes into his coverage (among qualifying corners). 

• He allowed just 26.1% of targets in fourth quarter to be caught for a QB rating of 1.3. 

• He recorded 20 total pass breakups (interceptions + passes defensed). 

• He allowed just one touchdown all season despite 85 targets (eat your heart out, Stevie Johnson). 

The current storyline with Revis has shifted to off the field -- i.e. his contract situation. He has two years, $13.5 million remaining on a four-year contract, and Revis is thought to be seeking a new deal. Recently, he didn't rule out the possibility of holding out of training camp as a way to get a deal done. Things have been rather quiet the last two weeks. Too quiet.
