I agree mostly except that I think if Smoker was tangible then Luffy would have beaten him in Marineford.

As for Admirals being stronger than Shichibukais well there is no fixed level for a Shichibukai unlike Admirals.

I think Mihawk and possibly Doflamingo are Admiral level (we might get to see him fight Aokiji and get a concrete idea) while others are weaker, with Moriah being decently weak (I think Smoker or some other Vice Admiral can beat him).
