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?

I think you could make an argument that Garrett was the 2nd best first overall in the last 10 years.

He’s definitely better than:

Eric Fisher
Jadaveon Clowney
Jameis Winston
Jared Goff
Baker Mayfield
Kyler Murray
Travon Walker

Then TLaw I think is debatable because I don’t think we’ve reached his full potential (plus QB is more valuable). Bryce Young is too early but it doesn’t look good.

Burrow is obviously the best in the last 10 years.

Burrow 100%

The Goff revival of the last two years might have him finish higher on this list than you think

Burrow and Garrett are OPOY and DPOY level players. Just because Goff isn’t as good as them doesn’t mean he’s not good.
