I like your list with a few exceptions:
At ILB, no way the Pile Jumper belongs there. Derrick Brooks was much better than Lewis. He just wasn't a shameless self-promotion artist like Ray.
DE has to include Deacon and DT. Any all-time list has to include Derrick Thomas. This isnt even a discussion. I'd drop Peppers and put Deacon over him. I'd probably edge out JJ Watt at this point and put Doug Atkins in (10 time All Pro - of which 4 were first team - is hard to argue with).
I don't think Richard Seymour was ever a transcendent DT. I'd swap John Randle or Alan Page in there. Maybe the best pass rushers from the DT position ever.
Never thought Hamm was that great. Lived off the Steel Curtain/PSU reputation. Always thought Wilber Marshall was highly underrated. 3x All Pro, Defensive PotY in '92.
