No, those are definitely orange colored glasses. He's the best NT in the NFL, but there are several DL who not only have had more sustained success, but also several guys who had better years both from a pure stats standpoint as well as an advanced metric standpoint. Some names that come to mind:
Myles Garrett
Nick Bosa
Micah Parsons
Chris Jones
But Big Dex is definitely top 10 on DL I would say and he's only getting better

Chris Jones is great as well but I'd put him behind DEx and Donald... at least as of late. Parsons is a LB or OLB.

He has come a long way from ostarine-gate. I told him about others that were falsely accused at the Greenville mall. I also told him great things were ahead of him. I was amazed and surprised by his humbleness. Just facts. Keep on keepin' on my Tiger ranger.

Also, I was standing in line and next to the Trevor look alike when Clelin gave him his power ranger headband. I was also right there when Clelin gave the service member a signed jersey. My me prouder than I have ever been to be a Tiger. Great bunch of guys. Been around a ton of superstars, but none have impressed me more than that day meeting those tiger legends.

Well, his success is not a great surprise to anyone. As I recall he was #2 in the country coming out of HS at any position. Showed flashes at Clemson but had that darn nagging toe injury that he played through. If not for that would have been much more dominant at the college level. In the end, talent overcomes and I'm tickled it has all worked out for Big Dex. So if memory serves that is a total of 4 that were position players rated as the second best overall. Final results TBD but McGlockton was a HR and a multi year All Pro. D Bowers never quite lived up to the billing and then his mediocre pro career was cut short by injury. Big Dex has lived up to the billing. Hope Bresee does as well.
