How does the highest paid defensive player ever compare to these guys?

Honorable mention at the moment, hopefully gold after a couple of seasons.

While Ware has played on GOOD defenses his entire career, Mario has never had that. I think after this season is over, he will be looked at in the same light as the top guys.

Let's hope so. I can't really argue that MW has produce more than Ware, Allen, JPP, Matthews at this point, putting him in the top 5 at best at his position.
