Ray Lewis has no home...

**dbolan** · 03-04-2009, 11:31 AM

So, 3 years @ $24mil with $17mil guaranteed is not enough for Ray, eh?

As of this morning, no one is throwing him a bone and some folks are even suggesting that the Ravens pull their offer (above) from the table.

Personally, I think it funny and I can't stand listening to Ray talk...It is just as bad as listening to TO. lmao

I would take him for that! Although, if the Ravens wont give him that I think we could get him for less. Although, he is going to want to go to a contender now not in 2-4 yrs.

Ray Lewis is nothing but a name now. He was awesome and yes can probly pay lil football still. but no thanks.

Nothing but a name?????? Seriously bro!!! I am not a big Lewis fan either but the dude can still flat out play! He may have been the league's top tackler this past season! I'll have to look but I garrantee he was in the top five in tackles made and solo tackles as well! Also bet he forced a few fumbles. I'll take him at ILB over ANYONE we have on this team right now!!!

I would sign him in a second!!!! I agree he has some good years left in him, plus just think how our young D guys will grow up with Vrabel and Lewis!!!!! Damn that would be fun to watch.

His leadership and 117 tackles makes him more than just a name. That being sayed, he is asking way to much.

We will never sign him so this is all moot but to say he is just a name now days is just crazy talk!!!!!

I actually am a huge Ray Lewis fan. He is (or was) the epidamy of a linebacker. I like his zero-tolerance attitude for poor performance. But for that price, no way.

Are you serious, over anybody we have on this team?
Your crazy.

Anybody would sign him in a second...so why isnt anybody signing him... because he not worth it. The question is how much.

like I said, he still has lil football in him. Id take him for the right price. Like maybe a 4th rounder but no more. If Ray was sooo bada$$, then people wouldnt be all gung ho over Suggs and Scott over Ray.

OK, maybe I was a lil overboard when I said "just a name". But Im not interested in signing a big name when hes past his prime. Im not interested in another Donnie Edwards.

Unless its for the right price. Like Vrabel, that was a good deal.

I would take him as a solid middle for a few years and him with vrabel to teach DJ and Curry the 3-4 system, along with whoever else we pick up.

But, doesnt matter how much he is or isnt worth, I seriously doubt he would even consider playing for KC. He wants a ring, and he would 99% rather stay in baltimore.

Also, for Sn@keize.. you said you would take him for a fourth rounder. Remember, hes a UFA, we dont have to give up anything but cap space for him~

Thanks home. I was basically trying to put a value on him.
