Denethor was a High Man, a Dúnadan. He was a greater man than any other king unless it be a King of the Dúnedain.

If you were to consider Denethor as compared to other men just recall the comparisons made of the Dúnedain to other men. The warriors of Rohan were like children next to them, and Éowyn saw that none of their warriors could compete with them. This would hold true of Denethor as well, being a Dúnadan.
