As long as you're referring to the Nikon AFS 16-85G VR lens, then yes, this is a very good lens and would work very well with your D7000. I have one that practically lives on my D7000.

It is a good lens - sharp, good VR, not too big, well built, great all-rounder. They used to go for about £250 used a couple of years ago in the UK, but are about £350 now. There must be a demand for them.

"better" depends on what your priorities are. 16-85 is better for me because it is smaller, has better IQ and the extra 2 mm on the wide end are more important to me than the extra 115 mm on the telephoto end. Like Mr Rockwell, I value convenience over quality and I also like numbers. Yet my preference goes to the 16-85 rather than the 18-200.
"sharper" - yes, the MTF curves and photo samples are available online.
"faster" no, both lenses are 3.5-5.6 except they reach the same aperture at slightly different focal lengths. Shall we say they are about the same?

Could you show us a sample and show us the shooting data from the EXIF information?

That depends on what editor you use, and what OS.
Some applications say EXIF, some say Metadata and some say information.
On a mac, the easiest, most universal way is to open the file in Preview and press CMD+i.
In Photoshop, you open the file and press CMD+Alt+Shift+i.

f/11 will have the slowest shutter speed.
If you handheld the camera, this can be camera shake.
Also, the framing (and focal length?) are different in these three shots.
