Ray Lewis Tribute

So originally I had this post set to drop minutes after the Patriots beat the Ravens… Unfortunately that never happened. Either way, Ray Lewis is the best Middle Linebacker ever to play in the NFL. Yes, he kinda did kill a man, but since he never actually got charged with the crime, well let it slide. Before I go on a rant about how I really feel about Ray, lets break down his career stats. I have also included a few of Ray’s highlight videos from High School, College, and the NFL.

Ray Lewis spent his entire 17 year career as a member of the Baltimore Ravens, appearing in 228 regular season games. In those games, he recorded 2050 combined tackles, 41.5 sacks, 19 forced fumbles, 19 fumble recoveries, and 31 interceptions for 3 touchdowns.

Playing in 21 postseason games, Lewis accumulated 211 combined tackles, 2 sacks, 6 forced fumbles with 1 recovery, and 2 interceptions with 1 for a touchdown.

While best known for his crazy pre-game dance, Ray will be missed for the leadership and intensity that he brought every single time he stepped on the field.

Thanks, Ray Lewis, for 17 years of laying it on the line and giving us the opportunity to witness one of the greatest linebackers EVER step on the field, week in and week out.

2012 x NFL x Draft Preview

With the draft being a day away, I decided to get my buddy Rob on the job to write up a mock draft. This kid spends unhealthy hours watching tape and breaking down the draft. With the help of whatever sites he uses, this mock draft was created for you all to enjoy, criticize, share, or whatever else you choose to do. Enjoy and Stay Up.             

Player-Pos-School-Height-Weight-40yrd Dash

1  Indianapolis Colts – Andrew Luck QB Stanford 6’4″ 234 lbs 4.67

Luck is the best draft prospect of all time. He also has a fucked up voice.

 

 

 

2 Washington Redskins (From StL) – Robert Griffin III QB Baylor 6’2″ 223 lbs 4.41

Griffin has underrated accuracy, he completed 72.4% of his passes in 2011.

 

 

 

3 Minnesota Vikings – Matt Kalil OT USC 6’6″ 305 lbs 4.96

The Vikings have a great history of shitting their pants on draft day, they can avoid that this year by taking Kalil who is a 10 year LT.

 

 

 

4 Cleveland Browns – Trent Richardson RB Alabama 5’9″ 228 lbs 4.48

The Browns need a running game to compete this year, Richardson can do everything a RB needs to do.

 

 

 

5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Morris Claiborne CB LSU 5’11” 188 lbs 4.45

The Bucs secondary needs help. Claiborne is the best coverage CB in the draft.

 

 

 

 

6 St. Louis Rams (From Was) – Justin Blackmon WR OKST 6’10” 215 lbs 4.47

Sam Bradford needs someone to throw to, he doesn’t have a #1 WR, or a #2 WR.

 

 

 

 

7 Jackson Jaguars – Quinton Coples DE UNC 6’5″ 284 lbs 4.73

If Jacksonville gets a solid LDE that front 4 will be scary next year.

 

 

 

 

8 Miami Dolphins – Ryan Tannehill QB TX A&M 6’3″ 221 lbs 4.65

Miami needs a QB bad. So bad they will reach for Tannehill who will need time to develop.

 

 

 

 

9 Carolina Panthers – Fletcher Cox DT MISS ST 6’4″ 298 lbs 4.79

Carolinas D lost them plenty of games last year. Cox will fill holes up front.

 

 

 

 

10 Buffalo Bills – Riley Reiff OT Iowa 6’5″ 313 lbs 5.16 

The Bills O-Line stinks and LT is their biggest need
