Ray Lewis Headed To Dallas?

Reports have surfaced around Baltimore that the Dallas Cowboys are very interested in acquiring the 10 time Pro Bowler and former Super Bowl MVP, Ray Lewis. The contract is said to be around $27 million and $30 million with 3 years on the deal. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones feels that Lewis may be what the team needs in the locker room. Lewis' intensity on and off the field could provide the spark this team needs.

In my opinion, Ray Lewis would fit great with Dallas' defense. The Cowboys defense is filled with talent and speed, but lacks experiance, especially in the postseason. Lewis would greatly help players like Bradie James and DeMarcus Ware, both of whom are still young but are terrific defenders. The Cowboys have been a dissappointment in the past couple of years. Their roster is filled with top notch talent, but they have not produced to their full potential.

The Dallas defense ranked 12th in the league in rush defense and 5th in pass defense. Offenses would dread going up against a Cowboys defense that consisted of DeMarcus Ware, Greg Ellis, Bradie James and Ray Lewis. If Dallas can snatch Ray Lewis in the offseason, expect Dallas to be better then ever, and hopefully not blowing it as they have in the past seasons.
