Yeah, Linder is in that top ten list. Best player? Maybe not, but he's been consistently very good.

I don't put much stock in these type of rankings, but Linder has certainly earned some consideration. His position makes it tough to really compare his performance to skill positions, but the fact that he's set himself apart from the roster churn along the O-Line is significant. I'll never forget watching all22 film from his rookie season and seeing the number of times he quickly overwhelmed his opponent at the line and then rapidly moved to a LB or DB. He's been good from the get-go.
