Packers interested in Jamal Lewis!

[SkinBasket]

unless we're interested in setting up another crack ring in the GB area, I doubt the Packers have a serious interest. This is the kind of rumor started by agents to try and facilitate something.. anything for their client. He's old, he's tired, and he's a felon.

But he's an old, tired felon with a name people recognize...

Here's how it probably went down:

Guy A: Jamal Lewis is a free agent and there isn't much chance the Ravens will re-sign him

Guy B: What teams need a RB?

Guy A: Oh, Green Bay needs a RB! They're probably interested.

Behold, the birth of a rumor.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing. The author knows GB might be looking for a RB....instant rumor.

I can't believe the pack is looking at Lewis...he doesn't fit the system.

Very few teams run that power O exclusively anymore. Most mix in ZBS and counters.

Lewis is done. He's ponderous at this point.

If he wasn't in Baltimore last year, he wouldn't have gained 700 yards.

Lewis ran for over 1100 yards and had 9 touchdowns, both more than Green. If the Packers are going to go with Morency, they will likely need a power back to go along with him. Why would it be pathetic to replace Green with someone who had more yards and touchdowns than Green?

Maybe we should try to pry Cedric Houston from the Jets. With their pickup of Jones, I think he's expendable..

[Partial]

I would be pleased with Lewis for a year. Then, i'd hope to address the position next year early in the draft.

As far as rumors, until its confirm he's scheduled a visit to Green Bay, then its BS...that goes for any FA..
