Trey lead the league in sacks created by a wide margin. He was a leader/top3/top5 in virtually every relevant pass rush stat: pressures, hurries, hits, forced fumbles, time to first pressure.
PFF/ESPN/AI has him:
1st: Sacks, Pressures, Quick pressures
2nd: Pass rush win rate
3rd: Batted passes
4th: Hits, Hurries
8th: Forced fumbles
ESPN has him #1 in sacks created by a country mile. 2nd in pass rush win rate.
AI says first in quick pressures.
Yes, he is not elite or very good vs the run like some others (Crosby, Watt, Garrett). But he isn't awful (65.9).
In terms of overall DE play, Trey is probably top 5-ish. PFF has him 8th overall and 5th in pass rush. I'd say that is a smidge too low.
I think you can make a very good case for him being the most effective pass rushing DE in the league last year (and the last several).
