Well this is an interesting topic. I would first like to make one observation. The way i understand it before punk hazard doffy didnt realy know that law betrayed him the reason to this is that why would he hold a chair for him. Now why is this significant well i asume that the 4 or rather 3 chair guys are doffy strongest underlings (but still no match for him) the fact that he was saving a chair for law either because he saw an enormous potential or that he had recently grown enaugh in power to be recocnised by him and sit in one of his chairs is a thing that makes you wonder what kind of a level did law had to reach before he would be able to sit down on one of them. But back to the topic well we havent realy seen any of the yonko except WB and pre time skip BB in action so it is dificult to say. I read somewhear long ago that i think it was staited by Oda (i could be wrong) that before WB died shanks was stronger (a little bit) but take into acount that shanks is youger and definetly more agile than WB was so take that stregth + speed and mobility + enormous endurance  what do you get ? Now i think that had shanks been in place of WB during the war that thre would be an enormous possibility that he would win the war not the marines (a say possibility not certainty). WB took down akainu like a rag doll ( considering how wounded and slow he was this is an enormous achievment) so i think that each of the current yonko at this point is far above any individual admirals stregth. So if we for the sake of argument say that kaido is more or less in the stregth area of shanks (i wont speculate if stronger or anything) and we know that luffy is probably in the are of half of shankses stregth we will definetly know how strong doffy is if there will be an all out battle againts him. Now Doffy is scared as hell of Kaido which means he is considerably weaker to the point that he knows he wouldnt even stand a chance. If there will be an all out battle luffy vs Doffy it would mean that doffy is roughly in the half of stregth of kaido and that his organisation (in stregth not in the area of underworld power) is probably in the same area of stregth than the Straw hats. One last thing sould be noted that he refused to fight Aokiji but i think that Doffy would have put up a hell of a fight so right now they are not as strong as an admiral. Ok thats the end of my train of thought please keep in mind that i am basing these theory on the fact that there will be an all out battle between doffy and luffy I could be wrong about everything.

To sum up YONKO > ADMIRAL(or akainu)>DOFFY, LUFFY> Vice admiral
