I don't think you can compare those two. Danny Carey is an excelent jazz drummer, but if you put Cobham behind Carey's drumset there's no way he could create what Danny does. Even the best of jazz drummers just can't keep up with the guys on my list. Carey, Bozzio, Peart don't stop in the genre of jazz drumming, thats what makes them great. They are geniuses on all kinds of drumming. So a jazz drummer that can't also go ballistic on a 25 piece set won'tget my vote for greatest. For me, comparing jazz to metal or prog is tricky
