I mean you've got Bosa/Garrett/Parsons in that tier. Maybe you put Crosby in there as well.
At DT you have Donald, Jones, Dexter Lawrence really involves in this discussion at this point and I'd say Quinnen Williams probably does as well.
I think when you're talking the elite of the elite, you're looking 4 deep at both positions. And when you start to get to the Hendrickson, Sweat, Allen, Reddick sorts of players at DE you can counter that with Heyward, Buckner, Simmons, Allen at DT.
They're pretty comparable in terms of scarcity/tiers, IMO.

I mean in history. There aren't near the amount of elite pass rushing D Tackles as there are elite edge rushers.
Also getting an elite pass rush from the inside is more valuable than an outside rush. An interior guy collapses the pocket and leaves the QB pretty vulnerable.
