We both know what average is. If you don't agree, just make your case. You don't have to play the semantics game.

What? He was one of the top rated RTs in the NFL in 2013. PFF actually has him #9 among all tackles. You may disagree with their ratings to an extent, but he was undoubtedly an "above average" RT.

That was the entire reason I asked what you meant by "average", b/c there isn't a question there

He doesn't make the plays he made 4+ years ago.
