    Similar to what I said about Wallace, the two aren't mutually exclusive due to our cap situation.

    Don't get me wrong, there are better ways to use our assets. But I wouldn't be upset if we got 1-2 years of Revis for Flynn and a non-1st round pick. We could still go out and get a pass rusher in the draft and a FA WR.

    That said, it's not how the Hawks operate so the odds are slim to none.

    I wonder what the Viking would take in return for J.Allen? Flynn, Clemons and our 2nd rounder?
    I personally wouldn't mind a trade up. We have so much young depth that a lot of our later picks will likely end up cut.

    God that secondary would be just asinine.

    I suspect the Jets wouldn't do that offer though. Guess it would depend on what they think of Flynn.
    As a Vikes fan, I wouldn't be that worried. We couldn't pass on you before so it wouldn't make much difference. Maybe you'd hold Ponder to 30 yards passing instead of 60.

    I'd be a bit more worried about that one. I liked Flynn in college and he looked good in a couple games with the Packers, but I've rarely been much of a fan of taking the other team's backup QB. And your second rounder is awfully late.

    Revis can do what he wants. If money is all he cares about, he will get it. Some team will pay him what he wants.

    Maybe he's making it difficult for the Jets because he wants to go elsewhere any way...

    Well its either one or many. Revis can't be franchised.

This seems to be about the owner not wanting to give him another big contract and trying to get some draft picks for one year left on his contract. This seems like a deal that would only work with a team on the cusp of the SB and just putting all their chips in and going for it. I do not want to see Revis island in Seattle, that would be brutal. I think he'll wind up with a team with a ton of cap room - Tampa perhaps - because the contract he wants doesn't fit with many teams.
    Indy and Cincy both have a ton of cap room they supposedly plan to use and both need CB help. Either could really take off with a Revis addition.
