How Does Myles Garrett Compare?

At 6'5" and 255 lbs, Myles Garrett was a highly sought after recruit.
He has been A&M's best defender this year, but because of their struggles, that is akin to saying he smells the best in a garbage dump. He is a young guy, though, and could even improve going forward.
With young guys like Garrett, broadcasters and fans are obsessed with making comparisons and projecting guys out. After watching his game against LSU, a few of comparisons came to mind at this stage of his career, but I wasn't sure which comparison was accurate because I haven't seen much of him this year. For people more familiar with his game, which of the following do you think is most apt?

Barnett is a more complete player.

Pass rushing is no problem for the young rising star. He just needs more weight to hold up in the run game.

I find him to be completely ineffective when the OL is allowed to hold and tackle him.
auburn fans, what do you think?

Garrett is a pretty damn good player today and may be a great player down the line....but he got an education from an NFL offensive lineman on Thursday without a doubt.

How could you tell? No one holds someone who is on the ground every play.
