1.) Aaron Donald - Los Angeles Rams
The single greatest Defensive Tackle in NFL history, Donald wins with superhuman strength and leverage from an unorthodox 280-pound frame.

The heart of the Kansas City Chiefs defense, he engulfs blockers with his 6'6 frame and non-stop motor.
3.) Deforest Buckner - Indianapolis Colts
A towering DT with the size to dominate in the run game and the pass rush moves to get to the QB; criminally underrated
4.) Quinnen Williams - New York Giants
A monster in the middle, quick feet white, a powerful frame, and relentless energy.

340' Old-school run stuffer who commands double teams on every snap, and has the strength to collapse a pocket consistently.
6.) Jeffery Simmons - Tennessee Titans
An ultra-dynamic pass rusher with rare strength and mobility for a 300-plus-pound DT.
7.) Jonathan Allen - Washington Commanders
A prodigy out of Alabama, he provides constant pressure up the middle, and that makes him a game-changer for opposing offenses.
8.) Cameron Heyward - Pittsburgh Steelers

9.) Christian Wilkins - Miami Dolphins
An explosive interior rusher who excels against the run but can provide reliable pressure.

A pure pass rusher from the 3 technique, able to beat guards and centers with quickness and penetration.
Honorable Mention
Daron Payne - Washington Commanders
