Highest defensive grade among edge this season (min 150 snaps) Aidan Hutchinson 91.4 Will Anderson Jr Via @PFF on X

What happened: PFF ranks edge defenders on a minimum of 150 snaps this season. Anderson is second at 91.1, with Carter third at 87.9 ahead of Crosby at 87.0.

Why it matters: The 0.3-point margin leaves first place unsettled entering Week 7. Bonitto at 86.4 and Rousseau at 86.3 sit separated by 0.1, compressing the race for the top five.

By the numbers: Hutchinson 91.4; Anderson 91.1; Carter 87.9; Crosby 87.0; Bonitto 86.4; Rousseau 86.3 (min. 150 snaps).

What to watch: Watch whether Anderson retakes the lead with a high-graded week. The 150-snap cutoff will pull more qualifiers into range.
