It’s a great day for a podcast!
Darrelle Revis: The Numbers, The Tape, The Verdict 2014 | Pre Snap Reads
As in depth as you can get…
H/T @OliverBThomas
Adam Schefter reports the New England Patriots pulled off a deal that has turned around their offseason after a slow start that saw them lose Aqib Talib to the Denver Broncos.
It’s a good deal for the Pats, albeit a short one that could see Revis depart next offseason. It will be interesting to see if there are any kind of clauses in regards to the Franchise Tag.
But otherwise, WOW! The team building phase of the 2014 offseason is officially underway and it exciting to see a player of Revis’ caliber paired with Bill Belichick.
The Pats now have that cover corner who can take away an opponent’s top option and it should make their entire defense better.
Listen in to the podcast at 11am tomorrow morning with special guest Paul “Fitzy” Fitzgerald as we fawn all over Revis and the implications of putting him into the defense.
CB Darrelle Revis and the New England Patriots have reached agreement on a one-year, $12 million deal, league sources told ESPN.

Also sounds like the Patriots are open to eventually making the marriage with Revis a longer-term one. Power move by New England, no doubt.

Couple things to pass along with thoughts as we round the first full 24 hours of free agency.
First, Darrelle Revis has been released and there’s been plenty of speculation that he’s going to land with the Pats. As much as I’d love that to happen, I’m going to wait on any kind of analysis or conjecture until he actually does land somewhere. But there’s no question Revis > Talib. I’ll leave it at that for now.
Albert Breer reports the Pats are working on an extension for Vince Wilfork which should bring them some immediate cap relief. Couple that with the release of Isaac Sopoaga, a move everyone expected, and the Pats suddenly could have plenty of cap space to work with.
Doug Kyed of NESN.com also reports the Pats have shown some interest in receiver Jason Avant. Another veteran depth/competition move. You never know who might just “get it” with Brady like Jabar Gaffney did in 2006 so they keep throwing guys like that at the wall, especially to push the rookies.
I’ve received a ton of questions in the inbox, sorry I haven’t gotten to any of them yet. I’m just waiting for the Pats to start making some moves before I start analyzing what has or hasn’t happened.
I have a feeling the next 48 hours are going to be crazy so stick around…
Tedy Bruschi fired up on NFL Live. Talking about Darrelle Revis possibility to the Patriots, Bruschi says, “This deal has to be done!”

Take that (slightly below-market contract the Pats offer you) Revis.

PFF rated Wilfork as the game’s 6th-best run-stopper. Denver’s Brodrick Bunkley was tops with 11.3% stops. Wilfork made stops on 8.7% of the plays. In 334 run snaps, Wilfork had 34 tackles, four assists, with 29 “run stops” that killed the play. BostonHerald.com – Blogs: Rap Sheet» Blog Archive » How good was Patriots DT […]
