...it's typical of NY (and the greater North East) to send their shit south because they loves wheeling & dealing with dumb-ass red necks who' give up R1 for bloody trash.
Or is he?
Either way -- duh J - E - T - S are a shoo-in to be crap-crap-crap for an extended period of timelessness.

Good question.
I think this makes them a complete wild card now.
I think they were a safe bet to go for Mingo or another pass rusher at #9. But now they could go for any of their other needs at #9 and grab a pass rusher at #13.
Also wouldn't surprise me to see them trade #9 to a team looking to move up for Austin or Eifert.
They have a lot of holes to fill and I'm guessing they might be tempted to add as many picks in this draft as possible.
This could signal the beginning of the end for sexy rexy, this is an obvious rebuilding move, not sure that the NY media and rabid Jets fans will keep giving him a pass.
Also, could they reach on a QB with one of those picks now? Either way, they just got one of the best CB out of our division (and conf.)
Rex is just an ego driven loudmouth. He wore Revis on his hand like a fancy Ring he loved to show off. Revis is a great player no doubt , but the way he used to just ignore the contracts signed and sit out , his recent injuries , Yet Ryan had to have him. So many of the bad free agent moves he made falls directly on him. God I hope they blow these first Two picks. That will cement their destruction for a while to come. Rookies rarely have an immeadiate impact. I don't see them accomplishing much either way. FU Rexy.
Based on their record, I see an underachieving/flop pass rusher being selected at one of the spots. Most are mocking Barkevious to NY...and Tavon Austin.
What they should do....Draft Austin at 9. Trade 13 to SF and load up on picks and a QB at 31. They are in full rebuilding mode.
What intrigues me about this deal is the contract... WHile the Bucs gave him a lot of money 16 million a year... (for perspective we gave Mike Wallace 13 million a year).
It seems none of Revis's money is guaranteed. He gets 13 million a year in base salary, each year. He gets a 1.5 million roster bonus, and 1.5 million workout bonus each year for the 16 million dollar total.. Revis got zero signing bonus money, so need to prorate it, throughout the duration of the deal to lessen the immediate impact on cap. This method also puts money in the (potential big dead money category, as the Jets did and owe 12 million in dead money this year on him)...
If Revis isnt the same guy following the injury they cut him, it cost them nothing but the 1st rd draft pick and obviously a low conditional pick next year, if he doesn't return to form...
WHile the bucs took a risk, the deal isnt that bad if Revis is still Revis... The 16 a year I agree is still a lot to pay a corner and probably can be detrimental to having money to spend in other areas of need.. But at the end of the day, I like this type of contract and hope we see more players and teams move to this type of straightforward structure...
