RW is the best DL of all time imo. Barnett isn’t on his level by any mean but records mean something, especially for how long it stood. Barnett was special at TN, haven’t watched him in the NFL. NEITHER are on RWs level but we can hope Pearson will be. He is disruptive and plays hard. We needed people like this for a while and I’m glad he’s on our teamI don’t necessarily think he’s White. But there’s a big gap from White to Barnett despite what the record says - White ended up being one of the top DL in the history of the NFL, and Barnett is miles away from that level.
I have watched Barnett a few times since he has been with the Eagles and he has been a disappointment. I remember thinking when he was drafted that it was a travesty that Garrett was getting all the love and Barnett was being overlooked because Barnett had better stats their last year of college. But he has shrunk in the NFL - he's not even the second-best D-lineman on that team, might not be the third-best.RW is the best DL of all time imo.
