Lewis stays with Ravens: The Baltimore Ravens have agreed to terms with middle linebacker Ray Lewis on a multiyear contract. "We got better today. Our football team got better. I am very happy," general manager Ozzie Newsome said. "This will allow Ray to finish his career as a Raven." The 10-time Pro Bowl pick had three interceptions and two fumble recoveries last season. By keeping Lewis, the Ravens fill the void created at inside linebacker when Bart Scott signed with the New York Jets. Lewis earned his 10th Pro Bowl this season after leading the NFL's second-ranked defense with 160 tackles. He also had 3 1/2 sacks, three interceptions and two fumble recoveries.

Fantasy Analysis

Lewis will remain a solid LB in IDP leagues in 2009 now that he's back with the Ravens. Consider taking him as a No. 1 option. This also makes the Ravens a formidable DST again even with the loss of Scott. With Lewis and Ed Reed, the Ravens DST can still make plenty of plays.
(Updated 03/04/2009).

LB Ray Lewis, in his first press conference since re-signing with the Ravens, repeatedly said today that Baltimore was always his first choice in free agency. "My family is Baltimore. My family is the purple. My family is the fans," Lewis said during a half-hour interview session with local reporters. "The bottom line: Was there ever a decision for me to leave Baltimore? I don't think so. I didn't visit anyone else's facility. That would have taken away from what I do for my city. When I put on that purple jersey on my back, I give everything that I have for every freakin' fan that's in the stands." Before Lewis signed his seven-year, $44.5 million contract (which is essentially a three-year, $22 million deal), he irritated some of his fan base when he didn't make it clear that he wanted to return to the Ravens. A few days prior to the Pro Bowl, Lewis acknowledged in an interview with the NFL Network that he would be interested in both the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Jets. But Lewis said at the press conference: "At the Pro Bowl, you have a couple of Mai Tais (and) you just have a freakin' great time. They ask you questions, and you answer the questions." Then, leading up to the start of free agency, Cowboys linebacker DeMarcus Ware said Lewis told him that it was his "dream" to play in Dallas and expressed his desire to sign there numerous times. According to Lewis, he told Ware that he dreamed of playing for the Cowboys when he was 9 years old. "Dallas has their own legacy," Lewis said. "My legacy is with Baltimore. It's going to end with Baltimore." Lewis didn't directly answer a question whether there were any teams that contacted him. He acknowledged he spoke to the Ravens more than any other team in free agency. It is believed that the Jets chose to sign former Ravens linebacker Bart Scott instead and the Cowboys never expressed interest. "A lot of things can be flirtatious," Lewis said. "But the bottom line is how far are you willing to flirt. I didn't 32/6/2009
