L.A.Rams
After Aaron Donald had a series of plays that almost allowed the Rams to pull out the 49ers game, it occurred to me that he has reached the Deacon Jones level. Would anyone agree with that? I think he is playing at a level that is at least comparable to any of the all-time greats at DT, including Alan Page, Merlin Olsen, Bob Lilly, Reggie White, and Warren Sapp.

Well, there's always this fact:
Lawrence Taylor and J. J. Watt are the
only three-time winners of the NFL Defensive player of the year award.
Joe Greene, Mike Singletary, Bruce Smith, Reggie White, Ray Lewis, and Aaron Donald have each won it twice.
I'd say that Donald has a great chance of being the only player to win defensive player of the year more than three times in his career.
Pretty impressive.
