    The NFL pays up to $5,000.00 per ring, with up to 150 rings per team. If the rings are over the $5,000 limit, the team owners must make up the difference.

    I believe there are different rings (styles and probably values) for Players, Staff, and other organization personell.

    I would guess that Biscotti would be pretty generous with the rings. However some people might have to settle for maybe a $500 version of the ring, which would be fine by me. But this is just speculation.

    From Wiki:
    These rings are typically made of yellow or white gold with diamonds. They usually include the team name, team logo, and Super Bowl number (usually indicated in Roman numerals). The NFL pays for the cost of 150 rings to the winning team, at roughly $5,000 apiece, depending upon the fluctuating cost of gold and diamonds. The winning team can typically present rings to whomever they choose, including usually, but not limited to: players (active roster or injured), coaches, trainers, executives, personnel, and general staff. Some teams have also been known to give rings to former players, despite not having been on the winning roster.[2][3] Sometimes a team will give rings to fans as part of a charity raffle.[4] Teams can distribute any number of rings, but must pay for any over the 150-ring limit.
    Many rings feature diamonds in the shape of the Vince Lombardi Trophy or a football. Some feature diamonds or gold in the shape of a team logo. Others illustrate the number of Super Bowls that franchise has won. Also, the rings are customized with the player's name and uniform number.
    The Green Bay Packers Super Bowl XLV ring[5] contained more than 100 diamonds

    I think Bisciotti determines who gets one.

    I think it would be a classy move by the Ravens if they did give him one. Cameron helped this organization a lot during his tenure here.

    It would totally classless and petty for the Ravens to NOT give Cam a SB ring.
    There probably are teams and Owners that wouldn't give Cam a ring but I have no doubt that Ravens will.

    Also, you can buy replicas from China for a decent price.

    I know some of the firefighters that work for the Ravens received a Superbowl ring. Outstanding organization from the top to the bottom.

    That offense that played in the Playoffs and Superbowl was his design for 5 years. He just just couldn't make the right calls or didn't trust Joe to do so. He'll get one he's harbs buddy. Now if Mattison gets one......

    Default How about a 12th man Super Bowl ring raffle?

    It would be great if the Ravens or some organization sold $10 raffle tickets with all proceeds going to the Special Olympics, the winning ticket would get a 12th man Super Bowl Ring from the Ravens.

    That single ring would represent every Raven fan.
