Inspired by the 'who are the least Slavic Slavs' thread, rank these traditional Germanic-speakers by their Germanic admixture from least to most, in your opinion. Or at least the top 5 least Germanic admixed. I chose groups that are clearly most mixed with non-Germanic people.
Alsatians
Austrians
East Germans
Eastern/Lowland Scottish (traditional Scots speakers)
English
Flemish
South Dutch
South Germans
Swiss Germans
Western Germans (Rhinelanders)
You can include other minor Germanic groups in the ranking if you want: Afrikaners, Amish, PA Dutch, Danube/Banat Swabians, Volga Germans, Baltic Germans etc, but many of them I know little about.

From most to least.
West Germans.
South Dutch/Flemish.
South Germans.
Swiss.
East Germans from modern Germany.
English.
Austrians.
Scottish.
East Germans from east Prussia.
Some individual English groups like people from the north-west and deep north east England are probably similar to lowland scots in terms of Germanic admix.

I made this model from K13 modern population averages yesterday, nowhere near conclusive but maybe a decent guide for the distances under 1.
Germanic = Norwegian
Gaulish = French
Slavic = Belarussian
Insular Celtic = Ulster Irish
Balkanic = Vlach
Baltic = Latvian
Finnic = Finnish
Roman = Italian

Volga Germans are western-southwestern Germans by origin, unmixed Volga Germans don't have any east European. Same applies to unmixed Transylvanian Saxons and Danube Swabians, these people are all SW/W German colonists in the east, they have nothing to do with eastern Germans let alone with eastern Europeans in vast majority of cases.

All of these are very havily Celtic admixed groups, not sure who is least Germanic but some subgroups of eastern Germans are most Germanic by far out of these.
Those from Mecklenburg can be modeled as 70% early Germanic and 30% proto Slavic (see wife and family of user Rothaer), and they artificially cluster with Swedes on K13/G25. North-eastern Germans will have lot of Germanic, because their German settler part was low German and did not have much Celtic unlike high German speakers/south Dutch etc.
Least Germanic maybe south Tyroleans and Austrians from Carinthia, Styria, Burgenland.
