Thats 35 million in cap savings without looking at what a Revis trade could save us. It was said we were 18m over the cap coming into the season so that leaves us with about 17m plus Revis money if he is dealt to spend on bargain bin free agents to build this team . Last year with a decent QB we would of had atleast 2 more WINS putting us at 9-7. All the players listed above contributed nothing or little at all last year for the JETS so there loss wont hurt the team at all. Lets get rid of the dead weight pick up some additional draft picks and build this team from the ground up.
Here is my scenario for Jets
Trade Revis for a #1 and a 2014 conditional 3rd or 2nd round pick depending on playing time next year .
Waive Tebow, E Smith, J Smith, C. Pace, S. Pouha, B. Scott 35m cap savingsSign RFA A. Howard OT, J Cumberland TE
Sign
M. Moore QB
C. Lynch Safety
Daniel Thomas Guard
Larry Grant MLB
Javon Ringer RB
Donnie Avery WR
Draft
Round#1 Eric Fisher OT W. Michigan
Round #1 (Revis Trade) Kuwann Short DT Purdue
Round#2 Zach Ertz TE Stanford
Round #3 Stepfan Taylor RB Stanford
Round #4 Quinton Patton, WR, Louisiana Tech
Roundv#5 Gerald Hodges, LB, Penn State
Roundv#6 Jamie Collins, DE/OLB, Southern Miss
Round #7 Quinn Sharp Kicker Oklahoma State

Great work:
This is the closest senario to what i would like to see the Jets do this off season. I like the cuts and the signing of Cumby and Howard. From there i love the 1st pick, but not so much the next 2. I would prefer to add an OLBer with the 2nd #1 pick and another OLman with the 2nd round pick. I can deal with the RB in the 3rd. I don't want to add anymore WRs to this team unless it's 6th or 7th round guy from a small school with either size/speed and upside.
1st : Eric Fisher - LT/RT
1st : Ezekiel Ansah - OLB
2nd: Barrett Jones - OC/OG
3rd: Michael Buchannon - OLB
4th: Michael Christine - RB
5th: Travis Kelce/Dion Sims/Michael Williams - TE
6th: Chris Harper - WR
7th Jeff Tuel - QB
