Ray Lewis to Dallas in '09?

RAY’S BROTHER IS A COWBOY

Posted by Mike Florio on May 1, 2008, 6:41 p.m.
Though it was reported a couple of days ago, the Dallas Cowboys have officially announced the signing of Maryland running back Keon Lattimore to a free-agent deal.
Lattimore is one of 14 undrafted players to sign with the Cowboys. But he’s the only one who has a brother named Ray Lewis.
And we can’t help but wonder whether owner Jerry Jones is thinking ahead on this one. With Zach Thomas signed to a four-year deal that is, in reality, a one-year arrangement, could Jones be thinking about trying to lure Lewis to Dallas after his contract with the Ravens expires after the 2008 season?
It’s wild speculation (as if admitting it makes it any better), but Jones seems to be intent on doing all he can to build a team that will be able to properly christen the team’s new $1 billion stadium, which is set to open, coincidentally, in 2009. Surely, the possibility of reuniting Lattimore and Lewis when the Cowboys take the field there has crossed the owner’s mind.
First, Lattimore has to make the team. But we have a feeling that he will. After all, who in the world would have the nerve to cut the kid brother of Ray Lewis?

[CrazyCowboy]

sounds good to me....

 

[Cowboys22]

I think that was the dumbest thing I've ever read from that site.

Ray has admitted in the past how he hates playing in a 3-4 scheme. He likes linemen in front of him eating up blocks, so he doesn't have to take on blocks himself.

 

[Pabst]

He better be a Special Teams stud if he wants even a remote chance of making this roster.

Our 3 runners this year are going to be pretty nasty, and you're going to need to bring a big skillset to ST if you're an UDFA.

 

[LeonDixson]

Talk about your conspiracy theories. Wow!

 

[Joe Realist]

ahhhh...no

 

[MONT17]

Exactly. He's not coming here to play in a 3-4 scheme. End of story.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I highly doubt that Ray Lewis will be taking a discount to come here.

How the heck did he get Ray Lewis is coming to Dallas? Hey Lattimore will beat out Alonzo Coleman in a close battle....

 

[tunahelper]

Ray Lewis cannot play in 3-4, cuz he needs to be protected from OL.

Plus he is an idiot.

 

[dmq]

Ray turns 33 in 2 weeks. His best days are far behind him.

I heard the RAMS signed Chris Long in order to lure father howie out of retirement also....

 

[BouncingCheese]

EHHH PLEASE! I love Ray Lewis but he would get killed in this system; we all saw how he got demolished by guards and centers in a blitzing 3-4. He needs to have big lineman blocking for him so he can have a clear shot at the RB and running lanes to puruse him. Just because somebody is a HOF'er doesn't mean that he will automatically fit into any system. Ray Lewis made a career of of his fire, speed, and instincts. That doesn't mean he is going to be a marksman in every system.

To the chagrin of Commanders fans everywhere (and the Delight of everyone else.) Danny Boy hasn't figured that out.

 

[Sarge]

Ray + Zach = 150 years old.

who in the world would have the nerve to cut the kid brother of Ray Lewis?

The Cowboys in about 4 months.
