(in no particular order)

How would you rank them?

 Marcelo Garcia
 Jacare
 Roger Gracie
 Demian Maia
 Andre Galvao
 Robert Drysdale
 Shinya Aoki
 Imanari
 Xandre Ribeiro
 Rahni Yahya
 Miguel Torres
 Chase Beebe
 Vitor Ribeiro

 Feel free to add fighters/grapplers that i might have forgotten. remember, how would you rank their bjj/ sub-wrestling in an mma fight.

I've seen only Demian Maia in the UFC 95. I think his a 2nd degree BJJ black belt. His triangle choke is so good that he setted it up nicely.

I kinda heard some buzz about Shinya. Maybe because his from DREAM that's why he doesn't have much exposure in Phils. I searched in YouTube on some of his videos.

Not too familiar about grapplers but I found a great video of Andre Galvao which really made me take notice. He totally owns the guy in his first match in the 2008 championships

it also doesn't help that roger has like 60 lbs over aoki. marcelo also made shinya his bitch but in a mma fight i'd take shinya.

Man, it was like he was making an AND1 mixtape! First time I've ever seen anyone get owned so badly.

Shinya Aoki vs David Gardner

I was impressed when his opponent escaped the triangle choke. But I laughed when his opponent waived his hand and Aoki sinked the choke causing him the opponent's defeat.
