Anderson has increased his sack totals each of his first three years in the league. Can he reach 14 sacks and 50 tackles? If so, he'll be in the top-5 conversation.
Gary Davenport
DE2
The Texans didn't make Anderson the highest-paid non-QB in the league for nothing--the 24-year-old had over 50 stops, 12 sacks and 20 TFL in 2025. That's closer to Anderson's floor than his ceiling--his combination of talent and situation could pave the way to an epic 2026.
