I thought about OTs before I made that claim but o-lineman historically get paid less than d-lineman although I may be using old fashioned assumptions. I remember in the early 80s when the Oilers drafted a bunch of offensive linemen in the first round (Matthews, Munchak, Steinkuhler), some accused Bud Adams of drafting o-lineman because they were the lowest paid positions in the NFL so he wouldn't have to pay as much as if he drafted a QB or a DT.
