[QUOTE="paulska, post: 489463, member: 557"] Here's my proposition. We're not stopping anyone in the passing game. Charles Woodson is no longer a sure bet to lock down anyone- sure, he'll make a big play here are there, but he's also a passing foul machine, and he no longer has the recovery speed/tools to make up for gambling. Tramon hasn't been the same since our SB run, and he just looks passive even though he says physically he's at his best. Sam Shields came on really strong for us late in the season, and I think that between Casey Hayward and Davon House that we have very good depth in the nickel and dime, far better off than when we had to play Jarrett Bush in significant packages. Here's my play. I cut Woodson. His big salary is not yielding good return. That's a lot of cheddar I now have to work with. And I trade Tramon, who is one of our larger salaries, and a young player with potential to return to top form, and whose contract is not an albatross in terms of year to year salary nor total length. To the Jets, with three second round picks, the middle pick of the deal a conditional first. For Darrel Revis. That conditional middle pick? If we resign Revis, it's a 1. Tramon's salary means my trade for Revis next season is a net draw, or close. Woodson's money lets me redirect some to ARod, or to renegotiate Revis deal and make his salary larger for next season, sort of like what TT did in the first year of Woodson's deal when he brought him to GB. My thinking? Shields and Revis give me aggressive cover corners. Yes, Revis, is going to demand big money over the longer term, but so did Woodson, and his chance of scenery revitalized his career and cemented him as a Hall of Famer. Playing in Green Bay means Revis not only gets paid, but he gets love that no other market can provide, and he's a man who wants to play his heart out every week. This move/moves mean that the young talent in our secondary now has space to breathe and grow- safety is not confused by Woodson's presence, and I'm not tempted to take reps from Hayward or House in sub packages, and I'm getting the opportunity to maximize Shields' talent because there are too many recent examples of players coming back off bad knees (Welker, Peterson) who return to dominate, and to me, Revis is a singular talent at CB with the ability to take away half the field for 6 years. That's what Tramon gave us the year we won it all, and I'm banking that the chops we showed in pass rush this past season continue forward... Let the debate begin... [/QUOTE]
