I did literally just say Jean was dead and Xavier was depowered when Emma was declared as such.
Emma Frost is not below Exodus. She easily stalemated him in psychic combat and her feats far exceed his. Stryfe is a disappointment of a psychic that I do not even entertain the idea that he could be anywhere near the top psychic’s.
It's fine and dandy to say "so and so is strongest telepath because they're Omega" and whatnot, but I answer this in my headcanon with actions. At one point Emma Frost (with Cerebro's assistance) mindwiped the entire planet, erasing their knowledge of mutants. That's baller in my book.
At one point AOA Jean Grey burned the Death Seed completely out of Betsy. But nobody seems able or willing to do the same thing for Warren...

Oh, I never shared my choice (isn't it obvious?):
JEAN GREY
As I see it, the high tier X-Men telepathic list of psychics goes as follows,
1) Jean Grey
2) Onslaught
3) Charles Xavier
4) Cassandra Nova
5) Shadow King
6) Emma Frost
7) Rachel Summers
8) Mister Sinister
9) Exodus
10) Five-In-One Stepford Cuckoos
11) Captain Britain (Betsy)
Nate Grey is not on the list because he is either below everyone in his Pre-Shaman form or he is above everyone in his Shaman and Lifeseed forms. Nate Grey is a very strange case. Legion is the same way with his base and United forms. Phoenix is a class of its own.

It would be interesting if each telepath was truly gifted at one aspect of telepathy. Like someone is great at reading thoughts and another at creating false impressions. I guess Mastermind comes to mind here. That way it would give each a unique telepathic power subset or area in which they excel. This may already occur to some extent but I don't read all the X-titles.

Probably Jean but isnt it always Jean? But I am pretty sure Betsy was pushed as more powerful at one point and even Rachel but to stick to the legend it will alwys be Jean by default she was told she surpassed Xavier at one point as well. Jean is 05 so this no doubt will never change.
