Tyler Baron is also having a great start to the season applying pressure from the other side! Through in solid contributions from Harrison / Joseph and things are looking up for sure!
Think they both have 4 sacks on the season.

I 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.
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 team

I met his mother last year at the vol walk (very nice woman) and I looked him up, 5 star and number one player in the state of NC I believe. He is freakishly athletic and most likely our next great edge rusher. He made Rattlers life hell last weekend. He is the type of player than can really change a game and the game plan of the opposing team.

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.
