Is the best defensive player in the SEC, period. And yes, even better than Myles Garrett.

He's ok but his comments about female placekickers were way off-base.

No he's a top 15 pick in the 2017 draft.

Odd that you would brag about him being better than Myles Garrett and yet your first defense of him is the NFL draft where Garrett most likely is drafted higher

Also if we are only looking at stat sheets, isn't Arden Key better than Barnett?

Garrett will be drafted higher but I still think Barnett is better. I think Garrett is unbelievable, I just think Barnett is a more complete player. Barnett is just as good stopping the run as rushing the passer.

PFF Early Season All Americans

From PFF:

Defense

Edge Defenders: Myles Garrett, Texas A&M and Arden Key, LSU

The highly-touted SEC edge defenders have lived up to the hype and Tennessee’s Derek Barnett barely gets edged by Key for one of the top spots. Garrett should at least be a part of the Heisman discussion as he has the nation’s top pass rushing grade at 89.8 with his three sacks, 10 QB hits, and 13 hurries on 142 pass rushes. He’s also improved his work against the run this season, ranking within the top 20 at 82.8. As for Key, he’s taken to LSU’s new defensive scheme with an 86.4 pass rushing grade that ranks sixth in the nation. He’s notched six sacks, seven QB hits, and 13 hurries on only 101 rushes while also providing solid run defense for the Tigers.

I feel like someone tries to claim this over Myles weekly. It is just getting comical at this point.

Barnett likely won't even come out this year. Well, he's stupid if he does.

with that being said, Allen and Williams are both seniors therefore they will be drafted ahead.
