Problem
I'm trying to get SQL Server 2016 Developer Edition but when I access to Microsoft Dev Essentials page I only can see Express Edition versions:
And when I visit SQL Server Download page I only can download 2019 version
I would like get previous versions of SQL Server 2019 Developer Edition.
Thanks!

Solution
Old versions are not included in the Downloads for Visual Studio Dev Essentials. You need Visual Studio Professional, or one of the other paid subscriptions to access the back catalog of software. The complete list of available downloads by subscription type is here.
It is a free license, if you have access to the media.
The SQL Server 2016 Evaluation Edition installer is still available for download here, and you can select Developer edition during the install.
