Ravens Sign OT Mark Levoir

[PWNEDbyDEANO]

Like Pu said, this is just a move which ensures Cousins won't ever be playing T again and makes it much less likely we have to play Yanda out of position. Not a big name signing, but serviceable depth.

I think this is more of a vote of confidence in Jah Reid. I don't think they feel they need a great RT, so they go and sign a guy who can perform, who has some years under his belt and can perform. There have been numerous players who have been cuts from other teams that the ravens have signed who have come and performed well. I think he provides that depth at RT we need

....and apparently they've also signed Jason Murphy" someone else I've never heard of...

Are both tackles? Or is one of them a center?

murphy is listed as a g/c. . This is just a depth move.. Murphy has never been off a Psquad

I agree. They were picked up to push the rookies and let them know if they don't produce any one of them can be replaced in a day. One of them might do fairly well at RT. I like this move.

Interesting Patriot article on LeVoir - he can apparently play both tackle positions and guard...

Levoir is here to mentor Reid, he is a good short term solution
