I like Dos Santos, but not sure he can get through Velasquez. Overeem will be exposed once he gets a couple of ufc fights and probably end up being a gatekeeper. Daniel Cormier looks promising though he needs to face some elite fighters.
Velasquez is the most complete fighter out there. The best wrestler in the division with great standup and knockout power. Dos Santos has the best standup I've seen though. Either of them would run through Overeem.

Nah, just haven't been impressed with what I've seen of him. His record shows he's never beaten an elite fighter. In the past two years he's looked great against cans and bad against Werdum.

well he did beat Rogers when he was still considered a contender and he beat Belfort twice, Kharitonov & Vovchanchyn. and although his fight with Werdrum wasnt fun to watch he clearly won and as the legendary Frank Shamrock so often says "a win is a win is a win". im not saying he is the best but i do think he is a top 5 HW.
