Lists such as these often generate angst and controversy, but this should be a universally-accepted selection. To that end, as evidence for making Aaron Donald the top interior defensive lineman in the game, I’ll just link this lengthy Twitter film study I did of him before Super Bowl LIII.
In which I refer to him as a destroyer of worlds.

Sure, it’s from two seasons ago, but this is who Donald is. A destroyer of worlds, and the top guy at his position.
