Jones is more of a DT.
Lawson is really good (only guy to get a sack off Tunsil is 2013), but is coming off injury.
Garrett, like everyone has said, racks up all his sacks off inferior opponents.
Barnett is probably the best of the four as of now when we talk true pass rushers.

Marquis Haynes is an outstanding pass rushing edge, but is hot garbage against the run due to his small stature. If it is an overall DE ranking, he isn't at the top but when it comes to just getting to the QB, he's close.

There is yet another factor in play. Will he be struck by the Rahim Alem effect?

Check out his stats from 2008 and 2009, particularly his sacks and TFLs. Notice the just about 50% decline. What was the major thing happened between 2008 and 2009 at LSU?
