Only Bernie has a chance of truly beating Trump, I think. He needs the nomination.

None of the smear tactics against employed against Bernie by the media has worked and if you stick him in a debate with Trump, Bernie would tear him to pieces. The reason why Trump won last time is because his lies swung enough of the unions and working class to his side but Bernie is likely to snatch 'em back since he has a lot of support from former Trump voters because the numbers generally back up Bernie's campaign promises and goals.

Biden would be a disaster, Hillary 2.0. If he ends up getting the nomination, Trump will win again since he can deploy the same mudslinging tactics against Biden as he did with Hillary.

Warren would be better than Biden but Trump will go in hard on the 'Pocahontas' thing and I think a lot of voters would rally against her in the same way they did against Hillary.

Mayor Pete would be catastrophic. He's a terrible candidate who doesn't track well with important minority votes and he's basically a republican but that won't help him snatch votes away from Trump since the bible belt and homophobes will rally to Trump because of Pete's sexuality. Terrible policies and an easy target for Trump to use underhanded tactics against.
