Ditto on this order.  Lawrence vs Reddick is my quandary, but think Lawrence is doing the better job with less talent around him whereas Reddick has an ungodly amount of talent around him.

If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

I'm with Matt, Bob, Rich, etc.  The only caveat is I think there's a pretty big gap between Parsons in everyone else; at his current pace, Parson will surpass some HoF linebackers in terms of tackles and sacks in just 4 years. For example, Ray Lewis has 41.5 career sacks; Parson had 26.5 in just two seasons.  He's on a historic pace that revivals our own LT and the late, great Derrick Thomas.

That was a pretty big part in my ranking as well as Lawrence being strong against the pass and run.  I don't see Reddick as a great rum defender.
