Depends on the money. Lewis can still play at a very high level.
But it's pretty safe to say that if we added Lewis to the mix inside with Mayo (and possibly Taylor) good lord that would be a ferocious front 7.
You guys who say this, have any of you watched any football before the merger? From the 70's even? NFL history is a long time. Tough to toss the term around if you've only been watchng football for 10-15 years.undoubtedly one of the best MLB's in NFL history.

Lewis is probably the best you've ever seen, but only it you never saw Butkus play, or Lambert, or Huff.
"One of"
Key term, get used to it.
I don't know if I'd put him up there with Butkus, but Sam Huff was the master at jumping on top of a pile and getting credit for a tackle. Flame me, but the Ravens got **** done with Ray at the helm.
Thanks Dad.
Huff was tremendously overrated. The guy was a star becuase he played much of his career in New York and in Landry's "innovated" defense. Huff even admits to that. He never had the ability to cover like Lewis did in his prime eventhough the game didn't require it as much back then.
And Ray Lewis, in his prime, was better than Singletary considering all the talent surrounding him in Chicago. As far as Lambert? I saw him play a ton and I find it hard to say he was one of the 5 best MLB of all time when you can make the case that he wasn't even the best LB on his team (yes, I realize Ham played OLB, but the point still stands).
All that said, I still don't want Ray Lewis at this point. But feel free to tell me about the good ole days and how I haven't seen any "real" football.
What is this, a "Who's The Oldest" contest?
