Barnett has proven to be better than Myles Garrett

[VolFreakJosh]

Against Bama, he was abusing Cam Robinson all game long. Watching the Texas A&M game right now, it seems like Robinson is holding Garrett in check. It just seems to me like Barnett is always there to make a key play. I think he's been better all along. Anyone else agree?

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Absolutely correct. Barnett proved he was the better player last year. He has further cemented it this year. The only, and I mean only thing Garret has over Barnett is prototypical size.

 

[ACvol3]

Did Garrett not play against us? I could've sworn he did

 

[KBVol]

Absolutely agree. Garrett looks the part more than Barnett....but Barnett is the much, much better all around player. It's not particularly close IMO.

He did. Had the strip sack early of Dobbs.

Barnett tends to play his best games against the top teams. Garrett just feasts on the lesser teams to pad his stats.

Debateable to label it that way. Garrett never touched the ball.

 

[Fijivol72]

Yes he is and it is not close. Garrett is a one trick pony.

Barnett plays his best against the best competition. He is just a great all around player.

 

[dduncan4163]

Garrett will be drafted higher but Barnett will have a ALL Pro career. I really REALLY hope my Titans take him with one of their two first round picks. Derek is a can't miss prospect imo.

 

[volfannbama]

Yep Barnett is better. Titans first round please

 

[ScornedPapaVol]

And either of the Florida cornerbacks with the other first round pick.

You mean the ones that jennings smoked? No thanks, give me eddie Jackson please. Dude is good

I keep waiting for Garrett to take over a game. I mean, a guy who is projected as high as #1 should take over a game at least once. He never does it.

Barnett is worlds better.

 

[Chilmonty]

Garrett is the best DE to EVER play the game!!

Garrett is playing soft this year, doesn't want to hurt his draft stock. If stays healthy he's a top 5 pick. If he goes all out and dominates with 25+ sacks...he's still a top 5 pick.

Hes been hurt for weeks tough to say i would have liked to seen him healthy

I actually wrote about this the week of the game. It's statistically true in every facet.

Always been the case. 1988 NFL draft, #1 pick OLB Aundray Bruce. Physical specimen size speed measurables...second round #29 overall Chris Spielman...fierce warrior, always brought it, wouldn't be denied...not very athletic looking. Google which one had the Pro Bowl just short of the HOF career.
