Zero leverage for what? He is a FA at the end of 2013. If the jets want to insure he will be on the team in 2014 and beyond they need to sign him by November of next year. If they don't they still have just a good shot at signing him as anyone else. However the $$ will not be established by them but by some other team. I actually believe that Revis wont get the money he thinks he will 15M+.
However the trade market for Revis is nowhere where some of you are placing it. If a team wants to rent him for a year, I think the jets can get late 2nd. But that won't happen until camp. No team is going to give a first for Revis and 40 mill SB without seeing him play. They are not more than 1/2 dozen teams that can even fit him under the cap. Realisticaly a team has to be 20 mill under the cap to sign Revis, their picks and their own FA. And the jets don't free up any cap space in 2013 by trading him anyway.
