The Facts:
Revis has agreed to terms with the Buccaneers on a six-year, $96 million contract, a source informed of the negotiations tells NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. The deal averages $16 million annually, making Revis the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history, reports ESPN's Adam Schefter. However, the deal includes no guaranteed money.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
In return for the three-time All-Pro, the New York Jets will receive the No. 13 overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft in addition to a conditional 2014 fourth-rounder that bumps to a third-rounder if Revis is on the Bucs' roster on the third day of the 2014 league year. The Jets are now the first team since the 2000 Jets with two draft picks in the first 13 selections. As for his recovery from the torn ACL that ended his 2012 season early, Revis passed his physical today and a Buccaneers source told NFL.com's Jeff Darlington that the team "absolutely" anticipates Revis playing in Week 1 against the Jets. If so, that's not good news for NFC South wideouts.
