Epanteris is not included since it's probably a large Allosaurus.

 

10. Torvosaurus(Amerian Species)- 30 ft long and 2-3 tons

 

9. Gorgosaurus- 26-30 ft long and 2-3 tons

 

8. Albertosaurus- 26-33 ft long and 2-3 tons

 

7. Allosaurus- 26-33 ft long and 2-3.5 tons

 

6. Lythronax- 26-30 ft long and 2-3.5 tons

 

5. Saurophaganax- 30-40 ft long and 3-4 tons

 

4. Daspletosaurus- 30-35 ft long and 3-4.5 tons

 

3. Siats- 33-36 ft long and 3-5 tons

 

2 Acrocanthosaurus- 36-40 ft long and 3.5-5.5 tons

PS- The positions of Sauro and Das are debatable ;)

 

Sizes based on my estimates

You already know I agree with your list, so all I can say of it, is that it's very nice. ;)

I like the list however, I think I would of put Torvo in front of Lythronax because remember Edmarka was probably a Torvo and rivaled Saurophaganax's size in smaller estimates. But that's just what I think, either way good list.

The reason why Torvo is at the lower end of the list is because the American species was not nearly as big as the European one and this list is about North American predators.

I'm not exactly agree about all places, but I'm agree with you about T.rex position.

Well, here's my own top 10:

1. Tyrannosaurus (11,4-12,3 m ; 8-9 t)

2. Acrocanthosaurus (11-11,5 m ; 2,4-5 t)

3. Saurophaganax (10-11,5 m ; 3,5-5 t)

4. Siats (Comparable to the two guys above in adulthood)

5. Edmarka (11 m ; 5 t)

6. Allosaurus (10,5-11 m ; 2-4 t)

7. Daspletosaurus (8-9 m ; 2-3 t)

8. Albertosaurus (8-9 m ; 2-2,5 t)

9. Gorgosaurus (Comparable to the guy above)

10. Lythronax (Comparable to the guys above in adulthood)

Edmarka is excluded in my list due to it possibly being a Torvosaurus, so I decided I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Using even max estimates, T-rex is twice as heavy as the next biggest, Acrocanthosaurus. A 12 ton T-rex vs a 6 ton Acrocanthosaurus for example.

All I disagree with is that Saurophaganax and Daspletosaurus should be switched
