I think you can make a case for either the Jags, Eagles, or Vikings as the best DL in the league. Regardless of who you want to put at #1, they're without a doubt the top 3 DLs in the league. 

The Rams are up there also, but after trading Quinn, I honestly can't think of a stand out edge rusher that they have on that roster. They got incredible DT talent though with Donald, Suh and Brockers.

I completely agree with you.  

The Vikings would currently be 3rd on my list.   The Jaguars and Eagles appear have more D-Line quality depth.

At this time,  the Jaguars would be a little ahead of the Eagles on my list because of the question marks associated with Michael Bennett ( character related ) and Haloti Ngata turning 34 ( and coming off a season ending bicep injury ).  Though Taven Bryan can be classified as a question mark because he's unproven in the NFL,  his versatility upfront adds to his value. 

For what it's worth,  I give Tom Coughlin and co. major credit for drafting Bryan with pick # 29 despite the Jags D-Line already being a team strength.  Things can change quickly in the NFL,  as well have seen repeatedly.   Depth / viable options on the Defensive Line is something that I believe should be a priority when building an NFL team.   The same regarding CBs.
