Trent Williams
San Francisco 49ers · OT
As mentioned above, Tony Boselli is getting his gold jacket this weekend. Long time coming for the blind-side blocker, and well deserved. But I'll make the case that Trent Williams has been just as dominant of a left tackle (if not more so) over a longer period of time. He's the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history, and rightfully so: The man they call "Silverback" is the best in the business, an absolute rock. The tape munchers over at Pro Football Focus had him as the No. 1 player in the entire league last season, handing him the highest PFF grade ever for an offensive tackle.
Having made the Pro Bowl in each of his past nine active seasons, Williams deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Walter Jones and Jonathan Ogden, two first-ballot Hall of Famers.
