but this is players ranking players right?
Yeah it's a players ranking, so you'd think they'd respect Whitworth especially after such a crazy good year put up by him.

The thing is the OL is a unit only as good as it's weakest player. If Whit is out there with a bunch of mediocre players the line is going to be mediocre. If a dominant RB is out there with a lot of mediocre players he can still have a huge impact.
Having a good LT can do a lot for an offensive line. Good LTs are also not easy to find. Those are both reasons that they are the highest paid guys in that group.
I could understand your point if Whit had one of his usual pretty damn good seasons, but this wasn't like the others. He didn't just "play well", he had a once a decade type season for a LT in the NFL.
