2018 PRESEASON DL PLAYER RATINGS

Our FBS defensive lineman rankings are sorted by our analytical VGR+ metric (or Video Game Rating Plus), which combines a player's 247Sports Composite recruiting rating, and adjusts it for experience and production. Read more about VGR+ and how we calculate it here

Though VGR+ is capped at 100 for use in our projections and predictions, we've included uncapped VGR+ (VGR++) for players who have acquired enough production points to surpass the 100-rating threshold.
