There needs to be a certain amount of info to do lists.
I can do some stuff like say X is supernova level, Y is Shichibukai level, Z is supernova level.
One thing that makes it easier for Naruto is jutsu have certain levels, and ranks are more closely related to level. Like, you know if someone has sage mode, they're are least N strong. And a jonin *is* going to be at least N powerful at minimum, ditto chunins, Kage, and so on, so that helps too. Plus, we've got databook stats.
While with OP, you mostly have to rely on seeing their complete fights, and then if it's a fight where you get to see them pressed hard, since unless someone's pressed it's hard to get a good picture of their power.
Ranks, well, the guy who sold out Nami to Arlong is a captain, ditto Axe Hand, and so was Smoker to begin with, and Captain Hina. Nami with her weather staff could without a doubt easily handle rat captain and axe hand at the same time no problem, but Captain Hina casually beat a guy who gave Sanji a very tough fight.
Location affects power too- a Grand Line LT is likely stronger than most East Blue captains.
It's not until the Admiral ranks (including vice and rear) that a certain level of power seems required.
I guess it may be doable, but it'll be tricky.
Sure, why not? We'll start at the top and work our way down.
Alright, as it breaks down, I'd say the three major high-end categories are Yonkou/Admiral, Shichibukai/Vice Admiral, and Supernova (which seems to correspond to rear admirals and commodores).
We can split each into three subsections, high, middle, low. I'll start with 2-4 of each.
As per usual, within each level I'll do alphabetical
High Yonkou-
Gol D. Roger
Whitebeard
Mid Yonkou-
Aokiji
Akainu
Kizaru
Silvers Rayleigh
Low Yonkou-
Portgas D. Ace,
Blackbeard (shadow fruit)
High Shichibukai-
Kuma
Trafalgar Law (post skip)
Mid Shichibukai-
Vergo
Jimbei
Boa Hancock
Low Shichibukai-
Caesar Clown
Crocodile
Gekko Moria
Smoker (Vice Admiral)
High Supernova-
Eustass Kid (pre-skip)
Luffy (with gears)
Monet
Rob Lucci
Trafalgar Law (pre-skip)
Mid Supernova-
Luffy (pre-gears)
Pacifista
Rorona Zoro (post-Asura)
Scratchmen Apoo
Low Supernova-
Capone Bege
Jewelry Bonney
Kaku
Rorona Zoro (pre-Asura)
Taishigi (Captain)

Well I think Crocodile is stronger than Ace lol. Also, why Apoo above Capone? Neither has done much.
Croc did lose to Luffy (with a little weakness exploitation), Ace has stronger attacks, has Haki (he would without a doubt beat Croc in a fight for this reason), could fight even when his powers were being cancelled, and was being groomed to take Whitebeard's place. I could see knocking him down to high Shichibukai. Think I should do so?
Apoo? Higher bounty, better powers. I could see putting him down to the same level, though.
Btw, do you think X-Drake should be mid or high?

Well it just seemed odd but I like Apoo more and he does seem to be more impressive. Basil?
Though we haven't seen a lot of him, he is the third highest bounty*, and his abilities are fairly hard to deal with. Mid or high, not sure which. I'm temped to go mid, since he didn't show too much in offense powers.
(*Bounty's not everything, we know Law's is lower, but he also likes to keep his head down)
I think Drake is tricky since we haven't seen much of him in action but I think his implied potential is pretty high.
Yea, he's really strong, but on the flip side it's purely physical strength.

Does what Brownbeard say here contribute anything? These were the first few he named off the top of his head so they're probably pretty noteworthy.

It contributes, but it mostly says what we already know. They are the four of the five biggest bounties of the original batch (fifth being Luffy).
Kid Luffy and Law are all definitely high supernova. The question is whether the other two are as well.
Originally posted by Q99Low Yonkou is a safe bet, in terms of sheer power and control over his Fruit, he'd rank even higher, but he is not nearly as impressive physically as his peers in that rank.
Hm, Enel for low Yonkou? He's got crazy power, but he's also something of a coward and less skilled than the Marine Admirals.Also I'd say old Garp at that level too. When he's young, he'd probably be higher, but he's obviously slowed down.
