Bucs GM Mark Dominik told NFL Network's Total Access that he is "fully confident" CB Darrelle Revis (torn ACL) will be ready for the start of 2013.
"We're going to keep him at our pace, but the whole point is that he'll walk out to the first day of training camp, he'll have the pads on and he'll be ready hopefully for the Jets (in) Week 1," said Dominik. "We're expecting that." Revis similarly told the media on Wednesday that he's confident he'll be ready for Week 1. Jun 8 - 11:06 AM

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Times reports Darrelle Revis (torn ACL) is "running, cutting and feeling better about his recovery," but has yet to be cleared to practice.

Revis remains confident he'll be ready for Week 1. "(The trainer) might tell me to slow down a little bit, but I’m going full tilt and I’m cutting because I’m feeling good," Revis said. "Cutting and running and doing what I have to do." The Bucs are going to handle their new franchise centerpiece with kid gloves, but there's every reason to believe he'll be ready for his Week 1 revenge tilt with the Jets.

Darrelle Revis (torn ACL) has been cleared to resume cutting.

It's a big step. "I feel very confident," Revis said on NFL Network. "If (they tell me) to cut, I am cutting. I am not trying to think about (it)." Coach Greg Schiano said Monday that "everything is gearing towards" Revis being ready for Week 1.

Bucs coach Greg Schiano says "everything is gearing towards" Darrelle Revis (torn ACL) being ready for Week 1.

Schiano took time out from pressuring Josh Freeman to confirm his new No. 1 cornerback remains on track in his rehab. Revis figures to take things slow in camp, but barring a setback, he'll be ready to roll vs. the Jets in Week 1.

Darrelle Revis (torn ACL) will not participate in OTAs, as expected.

Revis sustained his tear nearly eight months ago. The Bucs are confident that by the time training camp rolls around, he'll be 100 percent and ready to integrate with his new teammates. If Revis doesn't return to something near his previous form, GM Mark Dominik will look silly after giving up the No. 13 pick in the draft.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

Bucs GM Mark Dominik explained how he anticipates the acquisition of Darrelle Revis improving Tampa Bay's 2013 pass rush.

The Bucs don't have great pass rushers -- typically a fantasy defense necessity -- but they are suddenly an interesting D/ST because Revis will make them so much better. "When you have a Darrelle Revis on your team, it creates a pause. ... If Matt Ryan is out there looking over to his right and sees Roddy White has Revis over him, is he thinking about Revis over there? Is he spending the time thinking? Then, when the play takes off and he turns and looks at Roddy White and he sees No. 20 or whatever it is going to be, he sees that he’s well-covered and it is close, he is going to have to pause and the pause creates sacks. You can get it from a lot of different ways. Certainly elite pass-rushers can help and create havoc, but elite cornerbacks create a pause and that creates sacks."

GM Mark Dominik said he is "one hundred percent" confident Darrelle Revis (knee) will be ready for Week 1.

It's been seven months since Revis tore the ACL in his left knee. "I'm confident he will walk out the first day of training camp with pads on and go do work, so we'll be smart with him," Dominik said. By the time Week 1 rolls around, Revis will be nearly a full year removed from his tear. After giving up the No. 13 overall pick in Thursday's draft, the Bucs are betting that the game's top corner will bounce back to his elite levels.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

A source close to new Bucs CB Darrelle Revis believes the Jets are "not committed to winning."

It's not a surprise a player who's just been traded isn't oozing praise for his ex-club, but the Revis saga has painted a troubling picture for Gang Green. Jets football people are very much committed to winning, but owner Woody Johnson's refusal to even consider paying his best player — and the best defensive back in the league — was all along baffling. Johnson has taken on an increasingly vocal role in the past year, which is never a good sign. The Jets will have a hard time ever eclipsing division kingpin New England if Johnson doesn't soon take a cue from Pats counterpart Robert Kraft and leave football decisions to his football people.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

GM Mark Dominik insists the Bucs are "comfortable" with Darrelle Revis' surgically-repaired left knee.

The Bucs were supposedly prepared to call the deal off on Sunday if they weren't satisfied with Revis' physical, but decided there was "not enough risk to not do it," in the words of Dominik. Revis will finish his rehab in Tampa after spending the first leg of the offseason in Arizona. According to SI's Peter King, the conditional 2014 fourth-round pick being sent to the Jets will turn into a third-rounder if Revis remains on the Bucs' roster through the third day of the 2014 league year. He'd have to be damaged goods not to make it at least two seasons in Tampa.

Citing a source with knowledge of the process, Profootballtalk.com reports the Buccaneers were the only team in the Darrelle Revis trade hunt.

"It was always Tampa -- and only Tampa," writes Mike Florio. In other words, the Jets did well to get a 2013 first-rounder and 2014 third-rounder for Revis when the Bucs were bidding against themselves. The Bucs got a great deal when factoring in Revis' non-guaranteed contract, but the Jets' side wasn't bad. Assuming the Jets don't draft busts, this deal can end well for both sides.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

Bucs signed CB Darrelle Revis to a new six-year, $96 million contract that makes him the highest paid defensive back in NFL history in terms of annual average, but contains ZERO guaranteed money.

The Jets received (only?) the No. 13 pick in this year's draft and a conditional 2014 fourth-rounder that can escalate to a third-rounder based on whether Revis is on the Bucs' roster on the third day of the 2014 league year. The fact that Revis accepted NO guaranteed money is shocking. The compensation isn't quite what we anticipated either, making the Bucs the clear early winners of the Revis trade. Revis is obviously confident in the health of his reconstructed knee, so much so that going on age 28 he's willing to gamble on himself, accepting a pay-as-you-go contract with large but non-guaranteed annual salaries of $13 million with $3M in bonuses each offseason. The Bucs could cut him as soon as 2014 if his recovery goes afoul. It's truly fantastic maneuvering by Bucs GM Mark Dominik.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

Buccaneers acquired CB Darrelle Revis from the Jets in exchange for the No. 13 overall pick and undisclosed compensation in the 2014 draft.

Revis' agent announced on Twitter that his client has agreed to terms with Tampa Bay, finalizing the trade and his new contract. Coming off a torn ACL, Revis passed his Bucs physical -- after passing a Jets physical with flying colors last week -- and remains on track to return at full speed before training camp. We'll have full trade compensation and Revis' contract details in a future blurb. But neither side is turning back now. It's a done deal.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

The New York Post reports the No. 13 overall pick in this week's draft will be included in the Darrelle Revis-to-Tampa trade.

Jets beat writer Brian Costello suspects the other picks in the trade -- there's believed to be two more -- will fall in 2014. So the Bucs will be left with seven 2013 draft picks, beginning at No. 43. The Jets will have eight picks, including Nos. 9, 13, 39, 72, and 106 as GM John Idzik attempts to rebuild a roster that deteriorated in repulsively incredible fashion under ex-GM Mike Tannenbaum.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

The New York Daily News confirms the "framework" of a trade sending Darrelle Revis to Tampa Bay is indeed in place.

Completion is expected late Sunday or early Monday, pending results of Revis' physical at Bucs headquarters. The physical is taking place today. ESPN New York reports the sides have "agreed to trade compensation," while the NY Daily News' Manish Mehta confirms "general parameters" of a Bucs-Revis contract are "also done." Coupled with Dashon Goldson, the acquisition of Revis will give Bucs defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan an ability to dial up heavy blitzes without fear of opposing wideouts running free in Tampa's backend. Also capable of matching up with Julio Jones, Steve Smith, and Marques Colston or Jimmy Graham, the Revis deal has major implications throughout the NFC South.

Darrelle Revis - DB - Buccaneers

Yahoo! Sports' Jason Cole reports the Jets and Bucs have already agreed on compensation in the Darrelle Revis trade, and a deal should be finalized Sunday night or Monday.

Cole adds that the Bucs and Revis have agreed on a "basic contract." Revis will hop on a plane to Tampa Bay in roughly 15 minutes to take a physical with the Bucs as the last step in the process. The Jets will likely get the No. 13 overall pick in Thursday's draft, along with a couple of other mid- to late-round selections. Adjust your mock drafts accordingly.
