Warren Sapp has the most career sacks strictly as a DT with 96.5 IIRC.
Sapp played 13 seasons and therefore averaged 7.42 sacks a year.
John Randle was mostly listed at DT but also played some DE, and he had 137.5 sacks, but since he wasn't a full-time DT, is he considered the all-time sack leader at DT?
EDIT - Alan Page unofficially has 173.0 sacks.

Atkins is at 52.0 sacks in seven seasons (7.42 sacks per year).
If Atkins can keep up that pace for six more seasons, he is projected to get 44.5 more sacks, which would put him also at 96.5 sacks, tying Warren Sapp, which would be guaranteed HOF.

I think he may even have a shot at the HOF with 75.0 sacks, but knowing how all Bengals besides Munoz have been snubbed by HOF so far, 75.0 sacks likely won't cut it.
