You probably ought to get accustomed to the idea now. It's going to happen. One guy's random top ten list doesn't change that at all.

I am not paying so I don't care, I am just telling it like it is, he is NOT a top 3 nor a top 5 pass rusher in the league, period. I think that bothers you but it is the truth.

It'll be a mistake to pay him like that but again, I am not paying so...

LOL

Not bothered. 

You're just all hung up on top five this and top ten that. None of that matters in this scenario. 

He's a young ascending defensive end with pressure and forced fumble numbers in an elite category. 
He's going to get paid. 

Doesn't matter if his salary is #2 or #11 in the league. Next year those numbers will be eclipsed by another crop of pass rushers signing deals.  His agent is going to get as much as he can - and he should do just that.
