Let's make this realistic and say...

Corey Redding
Jarret Johnson

[nk02442]

Antwan Barnes.... James Harrison and Corey Redding.

[gabefergy]

Ravens from any period?

Trevor Pryce, Bart Scott, Adalius Thomas circa 2006.

JO and C-Mac from 2000.

[XxSizzleXx]

My picks are based on the help we need right now.

1. JO
2. Ray
3. AD
4. C-Mac
5. Sam Adams

This is in no order

[52liveforever]

1. corey redding

I'll match that and raise you a Kelly Gregg circa 2006. Can you say number 1 defense?

Seriously though. If we had a young Pryce and a young Gregg most of our defensive problems would be instantly solved.

[sman555555]

gregg, c-mac, ogden, mason, grubbs

[Ravenseconbeast]

Chuck Pagano.

[K-Dog]

So many names and ages.

Jermaine Lewis had some great returns.

Jamal Lewis in his hay day teaming up with River would be amazing.

J.O.

The Goose

Ummmmmm
I am stuck on my number five.

Deion. For the fun of it.

[JO_75]

Jermaine, JO and Siragusa.

[Kwothdaraven]

1. Rod woodson at corner
2. Deion sanders at the other corner
3. JO
4. Sam adams
5. Goose

[1/28/01]

Dan Cody?

[TreTheRaven]

Bart Scott, McAllister, Mason, JO,

and my last one...

Pagano. Still wish the best for you, pal.

[berad]

JO, Sam Adams, Adalius Thomas, Ben Grubbs, Trevor Pryce

[jdynamite]

1. Young Ray Lewis
2. Marvin Lewis DC - always liked when we had more of a 4-3 look with 2 hogs stuffing the Middle for Ray to run free.
3. Ogden
4. Jermaine Lewis
5. M.McCrary

It just said 5 Ravens so why not wish For Marvin Lewis back at DC lol

[Bltravens]

In terms of one singular impact I'd say Adalius Thomas. In his prime there was no LB as versatile as he was. He would solve one of our edge problems and solve our pass rushing problem. We could also use him in coverage as a nickel LB.

[codizzle]

I'll go 4 Dline to make it fun

1.kelly Gregg
2.Michael McCrary
3. Sam Adams
4. Goose
5. Should be an automatic pick for everyone JO

Talk about a 4-3 Dline
With Ngata-Goose/Gregg-Adams-McCrary

[Roveh]

1. Jonathan Ogden
2. Chris McCalister
3. Peter Boulware
4. Jarret Johnson
5. Matt Stover

[Gordo52]

JO,Ray & Reed in their primes,Rex as DC,McCrary.

[codizzle]

But to fill our biggest needs right now...

1. Cmac
2. Boulware
3. Edwin Mulitalo- take him over Grubbs any day of the week
4. Young Mason
5. Buddy Lee

[The Raven]

Mulitalo and Yanda as our guards would be straight up dirty.

If we could have our current offense and our 2006 defense... Damn that'd be something!

[/quote]I know this is sacrilege but we might have a better kicker now in Tucker. Justin has a bigger leg than Matt ever had and he already seems to have a vet swagger about him. Tuck has the potential of becoming the greatest kicker of this franchise (i.e. ahead of Stover). That's saying a lot considering Matt has a resume that should get him HOF consideration but I'm confident the kid has that kind of ability.

Chuck Pagano.
[/quote]

Nice... I will try to keep mine realistic. Most of the players you all are trying to bring back would need to be wheeled onto the field. I'll take Chuck back as DC, Antwan Barnes, Corey Redding, Aubrayo Franklin and Ben Grubbs.

I almost put Matt on my list but then I thought about it and Tucker is the new and improved Stover. Which says a lot when you consider what Stover meant to the Ravens.

I agree with you that Tucker looks really good so far. I just was trying to think of great Ravens from the past, and I couldn't go without putting Stover. Not sure if Tucker can challenge Stover for best Raven kicker, but I do agree that he has a start that shows great potential.

The 06 D line was CRAZY. Ngatas first year, Buddy Lee and Pryce (who was one of my favorites). Also had Franklin. Our pass rush packages with Suggs and Thomas. Healthy C Mac, Reed and Landry in the backfield. Ray was also 6 years younger.
