Buchecha, Leo nogeira, Bernardo faria, Cavaca, Joao Assis (I think he competes at super heavy)
If you include catch then Barnett is pretty awesome

I like the nogi versions of all these guys way more than the gi players in them. Rodolfo is the only one the moves like he isn't wearing pajamas, and I guess I've never seen Vinny grapple in a gi.
Munduruca*
this is a weird question, but whats the name of that purple belt that was putting it down in ADCC? Dude has massive potential.
Buchecha and Vinny, Werdum are probably the best heavy dudes out there today though. I think Vinny is the best though. Think the only reason he didnt do too hot in this last ADCC is because he got cut from the UFC, and he was probably all depressed and had a shitty camp. THEN AGAIN? I DONT KNOW SHIT. But thats my 2 cent
