Career Totals
#47 of 138 at DT in Sacks (2026)
Ed Oliver is rated 90 (Elite): production, role and draft slot rank 18th of 211 qualifying defensive linemen (outperforms 91% of them). 2026 games count fully, 2025 games half. Same 40-99 scale as college ratings; compare within the NFL.
Production per game depends partly on the offense or scheme around a player, so a player on a weak team can rate lower. Not a betting line. How we rank
