Best non-QB first overall picks? (alien.top)

Looking at Myles Garrett’s career to this point he’s looking like the best 1OA non-qb I’ve seen in my lifetime, but I’m curious who the top one would be. I know it’s tough because different positions look at different metrics but is there someone above Garrett?

Earl Campbell was scary good, just had a relatively short career.
