That's who they nearly hired last year (though, being a Ravens fan, I was glad that they didn't). San Diego is probably the only other team that comes close to the Ravens in terms of defensive talent, though they haven't ever played up to their potential on defense (they do get alot of sacks, but they allow far too many points). Shawne Merrimen would probably get 25 sacks a season in a Rex Ryan defense and there is no way that you'd give up too many points to the top teams in the league (The Ravens under Ryan routinely hold the likes of Indy and Cincy to under 20).
Marvin Lewis, Mike Nolan, and Jack Del Rio have been massive successes after being signed off Baltimore's defensive coaching staff. Rex Ryan is probably the best coordinator in franchise history and would be an even better coach.
When Norv Turner is fired for going 8-8 or something like that, should San Diego replace him with Rex Ryan?
