According to ProFootballTalk.com, the Denver Broncos made a run at Darrelle Revis once they gave up on trying to re-sign Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.
Per a league source, the Broncos tried after giving up on Rodgers-Cromartie but before considering Talib to acquire Revis.
As the source explains it, DRC declined to accept a deal believed to be worth $54 million over six years. So the team decided to contact Camp Revis, offering roughly the same package that Talib ultimately accepted. Revis declined, holding firm to his demand for $12 million per year.
It’s too bad the Broncos had to over pay for Talib when they could have landed Revis for more money. I would have spent the extra money for one of the league’s top corners.
