For a good stretch during the 2000s, the Pittsburgh Steelers had what was quite arguably the best offensive line in all of football, which sent three members to the Pro Bowl in multiple years. While that group aged together and their talent slowly faded, we are left with a sad reflection today looking back and observing that all of their careers are now over.
The core group of players about which I speak, in order of seniority, is left guard Ramon Foster, center Maurkice Pouncey, right tackle Marcus Gilbert, right guard David DeCastro, and left tackle Alejandro Villanueva, though Kelvin Beachum certainly deserves credit as his immediate predecessor.
