Everyone else. 

Why is Hunter so low? He's belongs right there with Lawrence. He's also 3 years younger.

I think you might be overrating him a bit here. One thing that annoys me about Hunter is that he NEVER gets strip sacks. His forced fumbles are extremely low compared to the other studs.

I think you're underrating him. He's a great run defender and he's turned into an elite pass rusher.

The funny part about this debate to me is that it would be easier just to ask who the top 10 Edge defenders are. They essentially handle all the same tasks. AND....these days teams are in sub-packages (nickel/dime) so often because of all the passing and 3/4 WR sets that essentially all the rushers in the league play some degree of 4-3 end.

 

If it's about getting after the Quarterback, then that's what it's about. Also setting the edge, yes. But mostly we're just talking edge players that get after the passer.

And for the record, in any healthy year J.J. Watt lands at #2 behind only Khalil Mack. Everyone else is an extremely good athlete. Those two aren't human!
