Pro Football Focus grades this defensive end higher than this year's projected No. 1 pick

You better not sleep on this man!

Texas A&M's Myles Garrett is expected to go No. 1 in 2017's NFL Draft and that's not a surprise to anyone. He's accrued 129 total tackles, 41.5 tackles for loss and 26.5 sacks in his three years in College Station. He's been a beast every year he's played in college and with a weak quarterback class, many draft experts and analysts have Garrett going No. 1 regardless of who's picking there.

Pro Football Focus has someone else in the SEC graded higher than Garrett though and it's none other than Tennessee's Derek Barnett. He has recorded 178 total tackles, 47.5 tackles for loss and 28 sacks in his three years. PFF has Barnett graded out at 91.1 while Garrett is 90.9 so it might be negligible, but that affirms what everyone has been saying about Barnett the past couple years and that he might actually be the best edge rusher in the conference.
