Get rid of all the big non performing contracts and a few players who have value around the league.
I know how valuable Jets fans believe Revis and Ferguson are to the Jets,but with this team the way it is,i say trade them both and move on from them and their contracts.

The contracts dictate who can and can not be moved.
In 2016 we only have two players under contract Nick Mangold and D'Brickshaw Fergeson. It does not make any sense to move either player unless they are willing to tear up their contracts in exchange for their freedom. Even then both players are so good at what they do and so difficult to replace that it is not worth it.
I would also suggest that any player that is on a rookie contract, a restricted free agent, or an exclusive free agent is worth keeping.
The reason Revis is tradeable (once he proves to be healthy) is that he can not be franchised and can walk in a couple years with us getting nothing in return. His current salary is fairly low as well.
