So far this offseason it seemed like the biggest issue standing in the way of a possible Buccaneers trade for Darrelle Revis was the Bucs' unwillingness to trade away their first-round pick. It seems that Mark Dominik is backing away from that stance, though, as he refused to rule out the use of a first-round pick, according to the Tampa Bay Times. "If we think it's in the best interest of the team, we will do something," Dominik said. The question is whether the Buccaneers and Jets can negotiate a trade and how long that would take. Any such trade is likely to be complicated and involve multiple picks, not to mention that the Buccaneers would want to hash out contract terms with Revis' agents before trading for him. It's clear that the Bucs value a shutdown cornerback, as Dominik called them "rare" and an "interesting community" to the Tampa Bay Times just days after noting that the Bucs were always on the lookout for "rare and unique" players.

Key for the Bucs is get him into a more team friendly, long-term deal. The contract he has how is just plain stupid...
12th overall pick for a cornerback coming off a blown knee is a steal for the jets. If i was the jets i would have taken a 3rd just to unload his gigantic cap hit...and revis would get 12 mil a year, everyone wins
