Barry Sanders having a bad OL is still the biggest widespread myth in the last few decades of the NFL.
Barry had multiple pro bowlers block for him over the course of his career amongst an around league average OL. The reason people thing he had a terrible OL was because of he spiraled backwards behind the line so much, not because his OL was actually bad.
This isn't the best metric but there really isn't a widely available good way to rate OL, so--Sanders's Olinemen earned 9 pro bowls over his 10 year career. For comparison, AP has had 6 over 10 years, Frank Gore has had 8 over his 12 year career, Faulk had 9 over his 12 year career, Tomlinson had 8 over his first 10 years.
I'm not going to type them all out but in 1993 he had: Lomas Brown (7x probowl & 1 first team all-pro) , Kevin Glover (3x probowl), Bill Fralic (4x probowl, 2x first team all-pro), and Dave Lutz.
