According to ESPN.com's John Clayton, Revis' contract with the Jets is believed to be a six-year deal for approximately $36 million.


The Cincinnati Bengals signed first-round draft pick Leon Hall to a five-year deal Saturday, that guarantees him $8.2 million and could be worth $13.6 million overall, his agent said.


so revis was the 14th pick and hall was the 18th pick but one is worth $ 36 million and the other one... $13.6 million... that's a huge difference in contract and money...

don't you think he's overpaid? at least a little bit?

I believe that he is guaranteed 17 Million, the rest is based on incentives. The hold up was the the Jets wanted him to sign a Six-Year deal Revis wanted five. So this way its sort of a win-win for both sides.

Never look at overloaded figures.

I would bet that Revis' Roster + Signing Bonuses are somewhere in Leon Hall's range.

There's probably a lot of Unreachable incentives put into that contract, like all contracts.

but 17 million and 8 million guaranteed money is a big difference.

I do think he's overpaid, no that you compared his contract to Leon Halls, but e had no choice, we needed him, our corner position is absolutely horrible. So, whatever it takes I guess. Plus, I doubt that most of that will be guaranteed anyway, probably just incentives for the most part of the contract, which MP said, a win-win situation forboth parties.

Eh, at least we finally got him and could be the CB that we needed for such a long time. Plus, he was a higher draft pick ;)
