The Ravens trade for Willis McGahee
The Ravens moved quick to replace Jamal Lewis at running back. The Ravens traded a 3rd and 7th round pick in the 2007 NFL Draft and a 3rd round pick in the 2008 Draft for McGahee. McGahee played in 14 games (all starts) last season for the Buffalo Bills and he carried the ball 259 times for 990 yards (3.8 ypc) with 6 TD runs. He also caught 18 passes for 156 yards (8.7 avg). It doesn’t appear that McGahee is an upgrade on Jamal Lewis, but, he came pretty cheaply from the Bills. Look for him to rush for over 1,000 yards in 2007 for the Ravens.
