  I can speak to post-1975. 

   Lambert, Carson, Urlacher, Singletary, and Willis are all worthy of top 5 consideration. But I feel Luke has already surpassed them. None were the complete package Luke is. Only Lewis was, And the only way to catch him is longevity. I think both are the best MLBs I’ve ever seen. 

  

I cannot speak to guys pre 2000 but yeah Urlacher and Lewis were amazing to watch. 2 different type of players but both phenomenal. 

 

I only have an issue with Willis on your list. He was really good but had a really short career. IMO him and Beason were very similar, with the edge going to Willis but they played too short of a career to get into the HOF discussion.

Lawernce Taylor is the GOAT no if ands or buts about it. 

LT did not play the same position as Luke.  That's like saying Aaron Donald is a better DE than Peppers.  In the defense the Rams play now Donald is technically is a DE but he is still really a DT.  Apples and Oranges.

Pretty much sums it up for me.

Willis made 5 All-Pro Teams and one 2nd team. 

Beason made one 1st and one 2nd team thru the same time period. Beason had basically a 4 year career. 

 Willis played eight and made the pro bowl every year but his last. 

  That’s not a small difference.
