I don't think you can go wrong with any of those, but Munoz stands above the rest slightly for me
I agree that Munoz is probably the best ever. The issue with your list (and everyone else's) is that it ignores everyone that played before 1980. It is a little easier to compare lineman across eras than it is to compare skill position players.
Dan Deirdorf, Forrest Gregg, and Bob Brown were each All-Pro more times than anyone other than Munoz and Thomas and are top 10 tackles without a doubt.

Larry Allen could bench over 600 lbs too.

I didn't get to see Munoz play but Johnathan Ogden was the best LT I've watched. Followed by Orlando Pace.

Munoz is the top LT.
Larry Allen was outstanding, but I still recall early in his career Reggie White casting him aside with one hand.

Munoz is probably a top 10 player of all time. He's the best LT by a mile... Which is possibly the second most important position on a team over the last 40 years.

Munoz.
But if you're gonna throw other names in there: Jackie Slater.

but just for argument you can add Ogden in to it.
Did you see channing crowder talk about ogden on bussin with the boys? He said Ogden was owning his arse and narrating how he was dominated him the whole play

I always defer to the former NFL players on this one. It is just so technical.
